Monthly Payments
The CTC is a refundable tax credit, which means it can lower the amount of tax you owe or give you a refund if the credit is more than the amount of tax you owe. For 2024, the CTC is given out in advance every month, and you can claim a bigger credit amount on your tax return the following year. This system makes sure that families who are qualified get money on a regular basis.
How much you get is based on how old your child is. Every month, families with kids younger than 6 will get $300, for a total of $3,600 a year. Families with kids between the ages of 6 and 17 will get $250 a month, or $3,000 a year. Starting in July, payments are usually sent out on the 15th of every month.
