Hello everyone, and welcome to this episode of Ignition Time.
[3]
President Biden is talking about, "the historic effort to end child
[6]
poverty through the expanded child tax credit."
[8]
The President said this,
[9]
This can make it possible for a hardworking parent to say to his or
[12]
her child, honey, we get you know, you can get your braces now.
[16]
And let's take a look at this article on your screen from CNN and we'll provide
[20]
you with the link to all of our resources in the description section below.
[23]
President Biden touts historic effort
[25]
to reduce child poverty through the expanded child tax credit.
[28]
So the way the expanded child tax credit works is it aims to reduce child poverty,
[33]
that can change the lives of working class families.
[36]
The first monthly installment of the enhanced child tax credit up
[39]
to $300 a month for each child under the age of 6 and up to $250
[43]
a month for each child, aged 6 to 17 arrives in parent's bank accounts
[48]
this Thursday. Families will receive
[50]
a total of $3600 for each child under the age
[54]
of 6 and $3000 for each child aged 6 to 17 for 2021.
[59]
This is for those who qualify.
[61]
I have done other videos talking about
[62]
the qualification criteria and I'll give you more information in this video.
[66]
I encourage you to check out
[67]
the description section of this episode of Ignition Time.
[70]
Half of this money will be paid out in monthly installments between now
[74]
and December, and the next will come next spring, right around Tax Day.
[78]
And the vast majority of families we're talking roughly 39 million households
[82]
covering 88% of children will get the credit automatically because they file
[87]
2019 or 2020 returns, claiming the credit. Families that file
[90]
taxes electronically should see payments in their accounts this Thursday.
[94]
And that payment should appear as child CTC in your bank account.
[98]
Yes, you heard that right, child CTC.
[100]
Now, those who have not provided
[102]
that direct deposit information should expect checks in several days.
[106]
The full enhanced credit will be available
[108]
for head of households earning $112,500
[111]
and joint filers making up to $150,000 a year,
[115]
after which it begins to phase out. For many families,
[118]
this credit, then plateau's at $2000 per child and then starts
[122]
to phase out for single parents earning more than $200,000 or
[126]
married couples with incomes above $400,000.
[129]
So this credit is only in effect for the year 2021.
[134]
So that's what's going on. Now let's hear from the President
[136]
of the United States talking about the child tax credit.
[138]
And the President says, "to give you a sense of how transformative this is,
[142]
this would be the largest ever one year
[144]
decrease in child poverty in the history of the United States of America."
[148]
President Biden is talking about the first
[149]
expanded child tax credit that starts going out to families this week.
[153]
Let's roll the tape and hear from President Biden.
[155]
Let's watch.
[156]
You know, and to give you a sense of how
[159]
transformative this is, this would be the largest ever
[164]
one year decrease in child poverty in the history of the United States of America.
[170]
As we begin now, historic reductions in child poverty among
[174]
white, black and Latinos in AAPI communities.
[178]
It's not even close.
[180]
The benefits will be felt for years.
[183]
Studies have shown that tax relief that helps children.
[187]
That's OK. Don't worry about it.
[188]
It's OK. Let them cry, hurt, whichever
[193]
that helps children.
[194]
It can lead to better health,
[197]
better school performance and better future earnings.
[200]
In fact, research from Columbia University
[203]
in New York found that for each dollar this tax cut cost,
[208]
it returns eight dollars and benefits down the line eight dollars.
[214]
You have to be spent other ways.
[216]
It's a gigantic help. It's an eight to one.
[219]
Return
[220]
your head, your heart and your budget all lead to the same place.
[227]
This is the right thing to do and it's a smart thing to do today.
[233]
These tax cut payments are arriving
[235]
automatically, but it didn't happen automatically result
[239]
of the work of people who did this, advocating for this for a long, long time.
[244]
And we finally got a pass to my American rescue plan.
[248]
Those were comments from the President of the United States.
[250]
Let's get some more details about
[251]
the child tax credit payments from Amy Matsui,
[254]
who was a National Women's Law Center director of income security and senior
[258]
counsel, nd she talks about all the things you can expect with the child tax credit.
[263]
Let's roll the tape and hear from Amy Matsui.
[266]
Let's watch
[267]
the American rescue plan increase the amount of the child tax credit so
[272]
that it's worth three thousand dollars per child for children ages six to 17 and it's
[278]
worth thirty six hundred dollars for children aged newborns to age six.
[283]
So for twenty twenty one,
[286]
under the American rescue plan, half of the child tax credit amount
[291]
that a family can get is available through advanced payments.
[295]
And the first of those is going out today.
[297]
So every month a payment.
[299]
Is going to go to eligible families,
[302]
that's worth the total up to half of the child tax credit amount.
[308]
When families file their tax returns for the tax year twenty,
[312]
twenty one in early next year, they'll get the remainder of their child
[316]
tax credit about getting back to the President.
[319]
Here's what the President also said about the expanded child tax credit.
[322]
He said, I quote, It will be one of the things the vice
[324]
President and I will be most proud of when our terms are up.
[327]
Let's roll the tape and hear from President Biden.
[330]
Let's watch.
[332]
I believe this is actually a historic day,
[336]
historic day in the sense that we continue to build an economy that respects
[340]
and recognizes the dignity of working class families and middle class families.
[346]
It's historic, and it's our effort to make another giant
[350]
step toward ending child poverty in America.
[354]
I think this will be one of the things
[356]
that the vice President I will be most proud of when our terms are up.
[360]
Beginning this morning, nearly all working families, that is,
[364]
people making under one hundred and fifty thousand dollars as families are
[367]
an individual making about one hundred and twenty thousand dollars.
[370]
25000
[372]
who have children or raising children in America are going to receive their
[376]
first monthly first monthly tax cut payment.
[380]
That payment, that payment from the expanded child tax
[385]
credit is to be signed into law as part of my our American rescue plan.
[390]
It's one of the largest ever single tax cuts for families with children.
[395]
And it's a reflection of our belief
[397]
that the people of this country who need a tax cut aren't the folks at the top.
[402]
They've got plenty of tax cuts, are doing just fine.
[405]
But it's the people in the middle,
[406]
the folks who are struggling or just looking for a little bit of my dad
[410]
would say a little bit of breathing, a little bit of breathing room.
[414]
This has the potential to reduce child
[416]
poverty in the same way that the Social Security reduced poverty for the elderly.
[422]
And just to add some humor to this entire speech from President Biden,
[425]
President Biden was actually telling young people in the crowd at the child tax
[429]
credit event, I quote, This has got to be boring, boring, boring for you.
[432]
Right?
[433]
Whoever you're with, they'll use some ice cream or something
[436]
for this, you know, and you can see the vice President smiling in the background.
[440]
Let's roll the tape and hear from President Biden.
[442]
Let's watch for you. Anybody under the age
[445]
of 13, this going be boring, boring, boring, boring,
[452]
right?
[453]
Well, I tell you, we had to work something out here.
[456]
So this is over,
[458]
you parents, your uncles, your interview with some ice cream or something.
[464]
So let me know what you think of the child tax credit.
[466]
