 | Re: Random question - how does a tax refund work for having a child? Hey Jessee not sure this helps but I found it on the IRS site:

 Apparently it's up to $1000 per child but there are (of course) exceptions based on income and stuff like that.

 | Re: Random question - how does a tax refund work for having a child? You should get the child tax credit which is $1000 per child plus you get 1  exemption per child. 
 The exact amount you willget is different for everyone depending on income & others things.....
