An advocate with the Children’s Defense Fund said immigrant children who lack Social Security numbers should qualify for the expanded child tax credit, worth up to $3,600.
Speaking at an event with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Saira Soto, the deputy executive director of Children’s Defense Fund California, lamented that the GOP’s 2017 tax reform law required tax filers to include Social Security numbers for their dependent children in order to qualify for the credit.
“Unfortunately, due to the 2017 Tax Cuts and JOBS Act, children must have Social Security numbers in order to receive the federal child tax credit,” Soto said Monday at an event for Child Tax Credit Awareness Day. “So Children’s Defense Fund California and other coalitions of organizations will continue to work hard to make this temporary expansion permanent.”
Biden and the Democrats expanded the child tax credit in the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan to allow individuals without an income to claim the tax refund for their dependents on their tax return.
Bullshhht !!!! They better Not get Anything, while the damn FGovt is taking American’s $$$ away (stimulus ) !!!!
Some let all these groups know, the piggy bank is EMPTY.
Sell lemonade or have a bake sale instead.
Geez
In other words ILLEGALS getting $3600 ea while we Americans are Loosing our Stimulus & Unemployment !
If you have those ideals then you pay for it out of your paycheck, stop mandating how I spend mine please. Your goals to ‘save everyone’ will ruin us all.
NO WAY when we have Seniors on SSI that barely survive and get hardly enough to live on and get little to NO COLA. US has several VETS that need help and are homeless. US has several thousand US citizens that are children that are homeless and needs help before NON-CITIZEN children.
These illegals are not the responsibility of US tax payers but their own country. This includes anchor babies.
If US taxpayers have to support them then deduct that expense from the uS aide that country receives from US tax payers.
They should NOT qualify for ANYTHING in America , so DEPORT them ALL !!!!
Of course they will!! Joe will give them everything on our tax dollars!! What a crock of sh** this administration is!!!
Group think question….
what is to be done with children from foreign countries brought here (or abandoned here) with no family?
…enlightened view points welcome
Americans on Unemployment , Social Security , Homeless , Veterans Should be getting ALL the benefits &
NO Illegal should get anything But a Return to where they came from !!!!

Not right that this amount of money given to Illegals & Americans who were haveing too many babies on the
taxpayer dime , while those on Unemployment & Stimulus are Loosing their money early on Jul 03, 2021 ,
