When any one has a credit amount that you could possibly receive it could be a good thing for you.

Tax credit is a possible amount that you could qualify for IF you meet all of the rules that have to be met for that purpose. You can have a refundable credit amount or a nonrefundable credit amount. And it could be possible that either one could reduce the amount of your federal income tax liability once your federal 1040 income tax return is completed correctly down to the last line on the 1040 income tax return.

Can you get a tax credit if you owe no taxes?

There are two main categories of credits that you may qualify for on your federcal income taxes: refundable and nonrefundable credits. Nonrefundable credits can reduce any tax liablity you may have to zero, but no further - even if the credit you qualify for is more than your tax. Refundable credits can reduce your tax and increase your refund so that you get money back from the government. Common examples of refundable credits is the Additional Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Credit (a credit for lower income families and individuals). Some examples of nonrefundable credits include the Credit for Child and Dependent Care Expenses, Credit for the Elderly or the Disabled, and the Child Tax Credit.
