How much is the Child Tax Credit for 2025?

Up to $2,200 per qualifying child under age 17 for the 2025 tax year. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act raised the base from $2,000 to $2,200 effective 2025. Up to $1,700 of that per child is refundable (the Additional Child Tax Credit). There is also a $500 nonrefundable Credit for Other Dependents.

Wisconsin Child Tax Credit + EITC Calculator (2025)

The federal Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit are the same in Wisconsin as in every other state. For the 2025 tax year this calculator shows both:

  • Child Tax Credit — up to $2,200 per qualifying child under 17 (up to $1,700 refundable), plus $500 per other dependent, phasing out above $200,000 (single / head of household) or $400,000 (married filing jointly).
  • Earned Income Tax Credit — up to $649 / $4,328 / $7,152 / $8,046 for 0 / 1 / 2 / 3+ qualifying children, fully refundable, subject to the 2025 income and $11,950 investment-income limits.

Wisconsin also runs its own state Earned Income Tax Credit, paid on top of the federal EITC. The state match percentage varies by year, so check the Wisconsin Department of Revenue for the current rate — this calculator shows the federal credits, which are identical in every state.
