I was just wondering how much money you get back per child on taxes this year.

Depends on how much you make.

Each child's exemption is a deduction of $3,300. If you are in the 10% tax bracket, that means $330 less in tax per child. However, each child under age 17 is also good for $1,000 Child Tax Credit.

Plus, if you make less than about $32,000, your family will qualify for an Earned Income Credit.

If your Adjusted Gross Income hits about $225,000, you begin to LOSE all the personal exemptions for yourself and the children.

What is the EIC amount this year?

I cannot tell you that off the top of my head. It depends on:

- Your total income.

- How many children are involved.

- Age of the children.

- Your marital status.

Provide that information and I can do a rough calculation.
