NH Moms Share Impact of Pandemic, Celebrate Child Tax Credit Payments

“We are here. The checks are in the mail. The money is in the bank accounts. And New Hampshire families need the support,” said Congresswoman Ann McLane Kuster at a recent Care Keeps Us Afloat block party in Manchester, hosted by MomsRising, regarding the Child Tax Credit payments.

The event was held on July 15, the day families began receiving the expanded CTC payments recently passed in the American Rescue Plan. The tax credit will provide monthly checks of up to $300 per child for an estimated 130,000 New Hampshire families; it’s available for single parent families earning up to $112,500 annually and for two-parent families earning up to $150,000 annually.
