Question
Claiming a dependent in 2021 that you did not claim in 2020
I just want to make sure I am doing this correctly. If a taxpayer did not claim a dependent in 2020 but then claims a dependent in 2021, they get the Child Tax Credit and the $1,400 Stimulus, correct? And it doesn't matter which kid it was, they just calculate it by the number of dependents, correct? I am seeing some large refunds for people who flip flop dependents because of divorce or not being married to the other parent.
