Bea can claim a child tax credit for Dee. Beas Social Security number is 466-78-6700, and she is single.

Bea sells her entire catch at the end of each day and thus has no inventory. She uses the cash method of accounting and has no depreciation. Bea uses her home office exclusively for conducting business. The office is 160 square feet in her 2,000 square foot home. Other than the interest and taxes reported below, her only other cost is utilities of $1,200. Assume no depreciation. Bea also paid self-employed health insurance premiums of $3,800 associated with her high-deductible plan.
Because the shrimping business is seasonal, Bea also works at a local restaurant as a server and received a Form W-2 in 2023. Bea also received a 1099-INT (see separate tab).
Bea also receives $600 per month in alimony from her ex-spouse in accordance with their 2022 divorce decree.
In order to move herself and Dee, Bea spent $800 moving her household goods (trailer rental), $200 on meals and $300 on lodging while traveling between Texas and Florida. The drive was 1,005 miles.
After moving to Gulfport, Bea sent Dee to a local private school for the remainder of 5th grade. Bea used $4,100 from Dees Section 529 plan to pay for private school tuition as reported on the Form 1099-Q (see separate tab). Dee had always attended public schools in Texas.

Bea paid for the out-of-pocket doctor bills with a distribution from her HSA account. See Form 1099-SA (see separate tab).
After the divorce, Bea had to purchase a car for herself and all the furnishings for her home. She kept her receipts and had total sales taxes of $4,012, which exceeds the sales tax estimate from the IRS tables.

Although the taxpayer is eligible for the Child or Other Dependent Tax Credit and Schedule 8812 is normally completed, we are giving you the amount to be entered directly on Form 1040.
Bea had health coverage for the entire year and does not want to make a contribution to the presidential election campaign.
Make realistic assumptions about any missing data.
Enter all amounts as positive numbers.

If required, round any dollar amount to the nearest dollar.
