Amid all the hoopla over the child tax credit, including giving money to those who don't pay taxes, why is the cut off age 17? Well, actually, I know why, but if they are going to give tax credit to those who don't pay taxes, why not include all children until at least age 18?
How many 17 year olds no longer live off of their parents? I think as long as you can claim them as dependants the tax credit should apply.
My 2 cents.

We regret to inform you that you do not qualify for a child tax credit on a reported income of $.02
If you don't think for yourself, someone else will do it for you!

LOL, Meer. You'd think since I only have 2 cents I wouldn't give it away so freely.

Joe, glad you found something humorous after that funk you were in on the other thread. Now hush up - you're gonna get the credit - just gotta figure out where to spend the $$$
I know! A rabbit hutch
