How many kids do you have to have to not have to pay taxes?

Answer 1

=== === Children may be dependents. Each dependent is a deduction to your taxable income. If you have low income, you don't need ANY children to no pay taxes. If you have taxable income, each deduction is worth somewhere around $3400 off of taxable income (reducing tax at 25% if your in that bracket..by $850)...so it depends. If you have 10 kids 10 x 3400 is $34,000 taxable income reduction....so if you had even only 75,000 of income before dependent deductions...you would still have 31,000 of taxable income. Of course other deductions, and possibly tax credits (if the dependents are children, which they aren't always), can provide additional benefits
