I am a stay at home mother. I am curious if anyone knows how much I have to make as far as income before I am able to file taxes and get the earned income credit for my children.. Is it certain amount before they will let you claim or any amount of money you have received during the past year. I have received a few child support checks , only 3 actually, and have done some babysitting/child care on the side , but I am trying to figure out about taxes this year, to figure out about getting the extra money I got last year when I was working. It was about $3,000. I know I can let their stepfather claim them all but would be less money..so I am trying to find out how much money I needed to make this past year for me to be able to file taxes...
Please help..year is almost over...
