The IRS Will Issue Monthly Stimulus Checks To Families, $3,600 Per Child

The IRS is schedule to introduce the next stimulus check slated in summer will enable parents to receive up to $3,600 per child for 2021.

Parents with children under the age of six years old are eligible for $3,600, however, parents with children between the ages of six and 17 years old are eligible for a $3,000 credit.

The parents with children under six years old will receive $300 per month in the summer of 2021, while parents of older children get a monthly installment for $250 per month, according to CBS News.

“We will launch by July 1 with the absolute best product we are able to put together,” Commissioner of the IRS, Charles Rettig, said.
