City of King issued the following announcement on Jul. 23.
The American Rescue Plan included a $3,000-$3,600 tax credit for families with children. Most families will receive this credit automatically. However, there are an estimated 4 to 8 million children whose families will not receive these payments automatically. In order to receive payment, families who did not file tax returns or who did not sign up to receive stimulus checks will need to register online with the IRS Non-filer Sign-up Tool.
Important to know that:
Most families will automatically receive monthly payments without having to take any action.
Low-income families with children are eligible for this crucial tax relief – including those who have not made enough money to be required to file taxes – but they may need to sign up.
These payments do not count as income for any family. So, signing up won’t affect eligibility for other federal benefits like SNAP and WIC.
