The Child Tax Credit (CTC) is a significant financial support program from the US government to help families with low incomes and dependent children.
As we approach July 2024, it’s essential to know the latest information about CTC deposit dates, payment amounts, and how to claim these benefits. This guide will simplify everything you need to know about the Child Tax Credit for 2024.
The IRS plans to start CTC deposits on July 15, 2024. Historically, the IRS has made these payments monthly. In July 2024, monthly payments of $250 will be issued. However, these dates are not officially confirmed yet. The government might change the monthly payments to annual claims, depending on individual payment details and eligibility criteria.
The CTC payment amounts are based on the tax year. For July 2024, the credit is part of the 2023 tax filing period. Therefore, no separate credit will be issued for July 2023. The maximum amount for 2024 is $2,000 per eligible child, with a refundable portion of up to $1,700.
Online claims result in faster direct deposits (around 21 days) compared to paper returns (6-8 weeks).
