The federal government and 15 states offer child tax credits to help American families, primarily those with low to middle income groups.
The 15 states that provide the Child Tax Credit are: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Utah and Vermont.
However, only 11 (California, Colorado, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon and Vermont) have made the child tax credit refundable. Eligibility requirements differ from state to state. Here are the entities that grant the most money.
Minnesota
The credit amount is refundable up to $1,750 per qualifying child. The maximum amount gradually reduces for single taxpayers with income over $29,500 and $35,000 for those filing jointly.
Colorado
Up to $1,200 per qualifying child, under 6 years old. The amount depends on income and filing status.
California
The amount amounts to $1,000 for each qualified family with income less than $25,000. Qualified families with income between $25,000 and $30,000 receive a reduced credit. The credit only applies to families with children under 6 years old who qualify for the California Earned Income Tax Credit (CalEITC).
