Not a baby question....but teens.....but.. to file their taxes when I claim them as a dependent but I never worked this year but received that credit??

Question

Not sure how to ask this.....an accountant told me to fill a 0 claim since I received that money but my teens worked part-time.....

Answer

I'm just here wondering how your poll will provide you with any insight?

Answer

To file their taxes or yours? If they worked and earned over $12,550 they must file and put yes that someone else can claim them as a dependent. To file yours just go through a free site like turbo tax and enter no income from a job but the info from the appropriate form for the advance on child tax credit. It walks you through all the steps. Probably not worth you paying to have it professionally done.
