Child Tax Credit – How Much Families Can Receive Monthly

Navigating the Expanded Child Tax Credit – Rules and Eligibility Explained

According to the article of CNET, starting July 15, families began receiving monthly Child Tax Credit payments until December 2021. Children under 6 could get up to $300/month, and those aged 6 to 17 up to $250/month. The remainder of the credit will be distributed during the 2022 tax season. Dependents aged 18 or older won’t receive monthly payments but could qualify for a $500 one-time payment next year if claimed. Full-time college students aged 19 to 24 can also receive this $500 credit if they live in the same household.

This year’s Child Tax Credit has grown a lot because of new laws. It aims to help families handle the costs of raising children. While getting monthly payments helps right away, some parents may decide to skip them to get all the money next year. People have different feelings about the payments, with worries about getting too much money and the rules being hard to understand. The IRS says it’s important to give accurate information, like Social Security numbers for all dependents, to make sure the tax credit is given out correctly.
