Step 3️⃣: DEPENDENTS & OTHER CREDITS:
On the 1st line, add the dependents under 17 and multiply by $2,000. Write the result on the line. For "other" dependents (e.g., parents, children 17&up), total them and multiply by $500.
Example: If claiming 3 dependents, ages 5, 10 & 15: 3 dependents X $2,000 = $6,000 (write $6,000 on the line).
If applicable, like Jane supporting her elderly father: 1 dependent X 500 = 500 (write 500 on the 2nd line).
