I don't think so. You could do the calculations... they're in the tax form instruction booklet... and see, but I'm pretty sure off the top of my head that the Child Tax Credit is limited to your tax liability, and if it's higher, you don't get the extra "money" back.

Do you have to split your income tax with your childrens father just because he pays child support?

No, you have no obligation to share your tax refund with anyone (unless of course you are married and filing jointly). If you file jointly, file an Injured Spouse form with the IRS to recover your share of the tax refund. Contact the child support agency in the State that intercepted the refund about recovering your share of the State income tax refund. His paying child support did NOTHING to either increase or DECREASE the tax you paid on any income you had. Nor did it change the amount he paid on any income he made. If you worked, or had other income, and hence paid income taxes on it but overpaid your estimate (or had too much withheld) which is why you have a refund.......ask him to please pay YOU half of what it was you actually paid! It would seem your child's father is....how does one say this ....an idiot!

You have no rights to your child can the IRS deduct all your tax return?

You are not allowed to claim a child on your return if the child does not live with you and if you do not provide over half of their support. They must also be your child or related to you in certain ways. If all of these tests are not met, then you are not allowed to claim the child and if you do, you will have your refund taken and if they find out later you will also pay penalties and interest. More penalties can be placed on you that eliminate you from receiving any earned income credit for up to 10 years.
