Spread the Word about NEW Advance Child Tax Payments!
Important changes to the Child Tax Credit will help many families get advance payments starting this summer.
The IRS will pay half the total credit amount in advance monthly payments beginning July 15. Families can claim the other half when they file their 2021 income tax returns. These changes apply to tax year 2021 only.
To qualify for advance Child Tax Credit payments, families should have:
- Filed a 2019 or 2020 tax return and claimed the Child Tax Credit on the return
- Given their information in 2020 to receive the Economic Impact Payment using the Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info Here tool
- A main home in the United States for more than half the year (the 50 states and the District of Columbia) or file a joint return with a spouse who has a main home in the United States for more than half the year
- A qualifying child who is under age 18 at the end of 2021 and who has a valid Social Security number
- Made less than certain income limits
The IRS will use information families provided earlier to determine if they qualify and automatically enroll them for advance payments. They do not need to take any additional action to get advance payments.
