No Child Tax Credit for Illegals Act of 2025

This bill changes the rules for claiming the child tax credit on tax returns. Currently, parents must provide a work-authorized Social Security number for each child they claim. Starting in 2026, the rules were set to become less strict by allowing other types of tax identification numbers. This bill keeps the stricter requirement of needing work-authorized Social Security numbers for children and also requires that the parents themselves have work-authorized Social Security numbers (with an exception for military families where only one spouse needs to meet this requirement). The bill also makes it easier for the IRS to reject claims that don't include the correct Social Security numbers.
