Congratulations on the birth of your twins. The IRS is basing the Advanced Child Tax Credit payments on children claimed on the 2020 return or born in 2020. The IRS plans to update the Manage Payments portal to allow taxpayers to update the information on children born in 2021 in late August or September.
You would use the Manage Payments portal to:
- Check if you’re enrolled to receive payments
- Un-enroll to stop getting advance payments
- Provide or update your bank account information for monthly payments starting with the August payment
