rby,

In response to you Q about how a qualifying child dependent full-time student age 21 gets the CTC, assuming parents meet the income limitation, they don't.  They are eligible for the $500 "additional" CTC for other dependents.  So complicated.  (sidebar: Am I the only one who often wonders if we no longer have responsible stewards of our tax code and system?)

Thanks for asking.  to you and all, I hope you have a good finish to your season!
