Families with children under the age of 18 who have filed their 2019 or 2020 tax returns are slated to begin receiving monthly tax credit payments this month as a part of the American Rescue Plan.
North Coast Congressmember Jared Huffman sent an email to constituents today informing them of the payments and offering details of the payments, which will provide $300 a month per child for children under 6 and $250 a month for children ages 6 to 17, and will be direct deposited into families bank accounts.
"House Democrats worked hard to secure these automatic payments, which put more money in the pockets of hardworking parents to pay for child care, groceries, and more so they can go to work and help fuel our economy, all while building better lives for their families," Huffman wrote.
