I received an update from the IRS today.
The IRS has launched a new feature allowing any family receiving monthly Child Tax Credit payments to quickly and easily update their mailing address using the Child Tax Credit Update Portal, found exclusively on IRS.gov. This feature will help any family who chooses to receive their payment by paper check avoid mailing delays or even having a check returned as undeliverable. To have the change take effect in time for the September payment, people need to complete the change request before midnight ET on Monday, Aug. 30.
Later this year people will also be able to:
- Add or remove children in most situations;
- Report a change in marital status; or
- Report a significant change in income.
