Starting this July, qualified families are expected to start receiving advanced child tax credit payments, according to Finance Secretary David DLG Atalig. <\/p>\n
In response to inquiry about advanced child tax credit during a radio news briefing last Friday, Atalig said they are working hard on that matter as Gov. Ralph DLG Torres is exercising his authority over the payments. <\/p>\n
Atalig said Delegate Gregorio Kilili C. Sablan (Ind-MP) earlier mentioned that Torres has to exercise his authority so that qualifying families can receive $300 a month per child for children ages 0-5 and $250 a month per child for children ages 6-17 as early as this summer and until the end of the year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are exercising our authority to go ahead and process advanced child tax credit monthly payments starting in July,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The secretary said they are working hard on getting all the processes in place for that. \u201cWe\u2019re excited. We\u2019re very busy,\u201d Atalig said.<\/p>\n
Atalig was on Rota when he appeared at the news briefing via Zoom.<\/p>\n
He disclosed that on Rota they\u2019re talking to Mayor Efraim M. Atalig and the municipality in terms of portions of the American Rescue Plan Act funding that the CNMI has received.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re excited to put some investments into the other islands outside of Saipan. As a Commonwealth, we want to ensure all our residents benefit from the funding and projects that\u2019s been on hold can start moving,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
