Stimulus Update: Missed Out on the Child Tax Credit? You Have Until Nov. 15 to Sign Up Online
The boosted Child Tax Credit was a true lifeline for parents last year.

You can still sign up to get your boosted Child Tax Credit payments online -- but you'll need to move quickly, before a dedicated portal shuts down.
