How US parents can sign up to claim $1,000 for children born between specific years

A newly passed US bill introduces a $1,000 payment for children born between January 1, 2025, and December 1, 2028. Interestingly, this period mirrors the span of Donald Trump’s second term in office, which will end in January 2029 after the next presidential election.

Following its approval, the new policy is set to take effect on July 4 this year, coinciding with Independence Day celebrations.

It is part of Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” which states: “This is a pro-family initiative that will help millions of Americans harness the strength of our economy to lift up the next generation. And they’ll really be getting a big jump on life.”
