WASHINGTON — Wednesday was the last day millions of California families will begin to get their $250 to $300 per child monthly child tax break payment.
Qualifying parents have been eligible for such payments since July, but that monthly, expanded benefit is effective only in 2021.
Extending the expanded credit next year is part of the Biden administration’s massive tax and spending package, which is stuck in the Senate right now. Congress is expected to wrap up this year’s business later this week or next week.
