What is the average tax return for a child? This is the first time that I'll be claiming a child and am trying to find out about how much I'll be getting back from the government.:)

How much do they take out of your pay in federal taxes?

Better yet how much does the last pay stub say was taken out in federal taxes?

The child's tax exemption will be $3,600 for 2009, plus you will probably get a $1,000 Child Tax Credit.

Additionally, the child MAY qualify you for the Earned Income Credit if your income is below $35,000.
