Will the Biden administration issue a fourth stimulus check in 2022? or will focus on the Child Tax Credit and The American Rescue Plan? This year’s Child Tax Credit expansion was only for one year, so the Dec. 15 payment may be the last. However, Democrats recently passed the Build Back Better Act in the House, and this act would extend gains for one more year, according to NJ Advance Media

Stimulus Payment For 2022
In 2020, the credit would be worth up to $2,000 per child under the age of 16, depending on the household income. However, it changed in 2021. For children aged 6 to 17, the cap will rise to $3,600; for those under five, it will be $3,600. For half of the total credit amount, monthly payments were made from July to December starting in 2021, as per MARCA.
Payments are then scheduled based on your 2020 tax return, with a cap of $250 per child for those aged 6 to 17 and $300 per child for those aged five and under for those who receive monthly payments. According to The Fool, Democrats had hoped to extend this credit through 2025, but the cost of doing so became hugely expensive as the bill was being negotiated.
