How much do you have to earn in order to receive the child tax credit?
The credit reduces your taxable income by up to $1,000 per qualifying child, so your income must be at least as much as the amount of the credit you claim. Otherwise, there is no income for the credit to reduce. If you make less than the amount of the Child Tax Credit, you may still qualify for the Additional Child Tax Credit.

The Child Tax Credit is $1,000 for each of your dependent children that you are claiming that are 16 or younger. It doesn't have anything to do with gross income. This credit is nonrefundable, so it can only reduce your tax to zero. If your tax is less than this credit (see worksheet in IRS instructions), you will only claim enough of the credit to reduce your tax to zero & you may qualify for the Additional Child Tax Credit. The Additional Child Tax Credit is refundable (you can get money back if it's more than your taxes). It can be affected by your income. If the Child Tax Credit worksheet directs you to this credit, use IRS Form 8812 & instructions to see how much to claim. The total claimed on the line for Child Tax Credit & Additional Child Tax Credit cannot be more than $1,000 for each dependent child age 16 or younger. Yes, unemployment is part of gross income. However, it is not earned income.
