    No income
    If I do not have any earned income (my income is exempt) do I still file for taxes? If so, can I still get the child tax credit for my child without having any income? This is the first year I have been out of work so I do not know what to do.

    If your income is exempt from taxes, then the Child Tax Credit does not apply to you. You MUST pay taxes to get that credit.
