The section rewrites section 24(h)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to cap the amount under subsection (d)(1)(A) for a qualifying child at $1,400, and to apply that subsection without regard to paragraph (4) of subsection (h).

That sentence, in plain words

The refundable amount may not top $1,400 for a child. One other paragraph is left out of the sum.

What this is about

A refundable credit can be paid out even with no tax owed. The cap limits that part. It rises with prices under the rule above.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
