When you claim a Qualifying Child (or a Qualifying Relative) as a dependent, you can claim a special kind of tax deduction called an exemption. An exemption is like a tax deduction, but an exemption is subtracted from your adjusted gross income before your taxable income is calculated.
Claiming your child as a dependent on your 2017 Tax Return will protect $4,050 of your income from being taxed. You get the full year's tax exemption regardless of when during the year your child was born. Modify Your Withholding. Since you will be claiming an extra dependent and your tax bill will be reduced, you can cut back on tax withholding from your paychecks. You need to file a new W-4 form with your employer to claim an additional withholding allowance.
