When can I opt out? I'm not trying to pay penalties because I took early payments.

As a mostly lurker, I know I'm shouting into the wind, but can we please keep the OT/Politics board responses on the OT/Politics board? This board has always been better than that.

I told my wife we need to put it into a separate savings account until taxes come due to see how the Dems fricked up and didn't think about tax effects before buying votes. she got mad at my suggestion of not pissing it away now.

my understanding of it is that it is a child credit prepayment. so you will get 300 a month this year and the credit goes from 3600 to 1800 (or however much)on your taxes.

For me: adding more to emergency fund
The rest will go to debt.

This is where real inflation will take off. Just printing $250 per kid and mailing it to houses once a month is how you get more people staying home with more money to spend on fewer goods because nobody is working.

If we thought inflation was bad before, buckle up.

There isn't a way yet

They say you go online to some website and you can opt out, but that website isn't live yet. The first payment goes out in 3 weeks.....

But isn't it really just an advance on next years credit?
