Earlier, the credit given for one child was $1000.

Moreover, some part of the child tax credit is refundable. Earlier it was not. The tax-ceiling has also been increased from $75000 to $200,000 in case the parent is single, and for married parents, the ceiling has been increased from $110,000 to $400,000.
