Which of the following is NOT a qualification for the Child Tax Credit?

The correct answer is based on the specific qualifications required to claim the Child Tax Credit. One critical qualification is that the child must indeed be a dependent on the taxpayer's return, and this typically means that the child is not providing more than half of their own support.

A child must be under 18 at the end of the year and must be a U.S. citizen to qualify for the credit. However, the requirement that the child provides more than half of their own support contradicts the very nature of being a dependent. In fact, if a child was providing more than half of their own support, they would not meet the dependency criteria necessary to be claimed for the Child Tax Credit. This nuance is essential in understanding the parameters of the credit.

Thus, the idea that a child must provide more than half of their own support does not align with the requirements for the Child Tax Credit and correctly identifies what is not a qualification for claiming the credit.
