This toolkit was developed to help inform families about federal and state tax credits that can put thousands of dollars in their pockets. This includes resettled refugees! When families file their 2006 tax returns, eligible families can claim up to: $2,100 from the federal Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit, $1,000 per child from the federal Child Tax Credit, and $4,536 from the federal Earned Income Tax Credit. In addition, many states have child care tax provisions.
