I alternate tax year with my ex. My child is now 17, do we get child credit at age 17? Or are they simply dependent credit?

    the child still qualifies for the Child Tax credit in 2021 as a result of changes in Tax Law included in the American Rescue Plan Act.  Please refer to the link below for a comprehensive analysis of the requirements:
