At a moment when 1 in 8 children are going hungry and millions of families are struggling, it’s crucial that we all work together to ensure every parent has the resources to access the Child Tax Credit. Here are free tax filing resources for Illinoisans: https://t.co/xSdKHJJlAf — PolitiTweet.org

The Child Tax Credit will lift half our nation’s children out of poverty and benefit over 90% of American families, but when I visited @TeenParentNP recently, I learned how many young mothers haven’t heard about the benefit or how to access it. 5/ https://t.co/2ngbB2PQRz — PolitiTweet.org

For folks wondering if they’ll be eligible for the Child Tax Credit for a baby born later this year, the answer is YES & the #AmericanRescuePlan includes a provision allowing anyone who gives birth in 2021 to receive the 3rd $1,400 check for that child after filing for 2022. 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

Today I had the opportunity to meet with Cosley Zoo in Wheaton to discuss the impact they’ve had on our community during the pandemic. Community centers, like zoos, play an essential role in our community’s education on how to care for our planet and ecosystems. https://t.co/YlFRj6xOne — PolitiTweet.org

The Child Tax Credit applies to your 2021 tax year, but the IRS will advance part of the credit in form of checks delivered or direct deposited as early as July, continuing through December. The remaining amount will be credited against your taxes when you file next year. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

If you earn <$75,000 or your household earns <$150,000 you’ll receive $3,600 for each child under age 6 & $3,000 tax for each child age 7-17. If your income exceeds that threshold, the credit will be reduced by $50 for every additional $1,000 of income. 2/https://t.co/j5Mq8YKc4A — PolitiTweet.org
