If you claim too many dependents you'll have to pay more in tax next year. If you are a very young person you probably can't claim to have five kids. If you are older, you could claim five or six. They wouldn't take out very much, but next year you'd have to come up with a lot of money to make up for what they didn't deduct.

Should a single person without children list no dependents?

Presuming you don't have something like an elderly grandmuother or brother or such you support ...meaning contribute more than 50% of the cost of their upkeep to, YES. I conquer, if you don't have dependents, then you should not claim one unless you have another sibling,family member living with you at least 6 months and where you pay at least 50% of their upkeep


If I don't have a lot of money with held on taxes and claim 3 dependents on W-4 and also when I file will I still get a good amount back?

Many more matters go into the equation. Really, the only way to tell is to at least sketch out a return and see where what you'll owe compares to what you've paid in. (And of course, what "good amount back" means is you own decision....understand, you may actually have to pay).

Can you claim head of household if you don't claim any dependents?

No. To qualify as a head of household, a taxpayer must be unmarried at the end of the tax year, must not be a surviving spouse, must pay at least half the costs of maintaining a home, and must share that home with one or more qualifying (that is qualified as dependent) individuals for at least half the year, unless the qualifying individual is a parent of the taxpayer whom the taxpayer can claim as a dependent. For tax years beginning after December 31, 2004, the requirements for a qualifying individual are somewhat affected by changes in the definition of a dependent. However, the taxpayer will still be eligible for head-of-household status even if no dependency exemption is available for a child because the taxpayer waived the exemption or because of the existence of a pre-1985 divorce decree or separation agreement


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.
