Need help calculating 2021 refund amount with 4 dependents and ITIN

I filed my taxes with 4 dependents and we all have ITINs (tax processing numbers). Anyone know how much refund I should get? I think its around $5600 but not really sure how it works.

The refund amount depends on several factors. For 2021, if you qualify for Child Tax Credit, it's $3,000 per child age 6-17 and $3,600 for children under 6. However, ITIN holders have different rules. You might qualify for other credits too. Without seeing your actual return, it's impossible to give you an exact number.

Yes, ITIN holders have some limitations on tax credits. You should really get a professional to look at your specific situation

Hey, I was in the same boat last year trying to figure out my refund. I started using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. For $1 it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what you qualify for and when you'll get paid. Way better than guessing! https://taxr.ai
