Child Tax Credit for Pregnant Mothers and Unborn Children

This bill introduces the possibility for pregnant women to claim a child tax credit, extending it to their unborn children. This means parents could receive financial support earlier, even before the child's birth, potentially impacting their personal finances. The bill also allows for the credit in cases of miscarriage or stillbirth, provided the necessary certificate is obtained.
Key points

Provides financial support for parents in cases of miscarriage or stillbirth, with a specific certificate required.
Establishes a process for obtaining miscarriage or stillbirth certificates, which are necessary to claim the credit.
Defines "unborn child" as a human individual from the beginning of biological development, including fertilization.
