Here are some key points from the episode:

  • Schedule 3 is where you might get some additional credits and payments after your taxes have been calculated.

  • The first part of Schedule 3 is for non-refundable credits. If you don't pay enough in taxes, these credits will offset any amount of liability or tax computation that you might owe.

  • You can also get a foreign tax credit if you paid taxes on international funds held within your brokerage account.

  • The credit for child and dependent care expenses can provide some benefit based on your income level and the amount paid for childcare, with the maximum credit being $3,000 for one child and $6,000 for two or more qualifying children.

  • Education credits such as the American Opportunity Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit are available for those who have college expenses.

  • If you are saving for retirement, you may be eligible for a retirement credit.
