LANSING, Mich. â Eligible Michigan families with children will receive payments directly to their bank accounts starting this week as part of the expanded child tax credit from the federal government, which was prompted by the economic effects of he pandemic.
Experts estimate this will cut child poverty by nearly half, a move the United States has never seen before.
âThese will be monthly payments to families that will show up in their bank accounts based on the number of children they have and their income level, said Matt Gillard who serves as president and CEO of Michigan s Children, a Lansing based advocacy group.
