H.R. 7884, Newborn CARES Act

Summary

H.R. 7884, the Newborn CARES Act, was introduced in the House of Representatives on July 30, 2020 by Mr. Pascrell, for himself and others, and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. It is a bill to require the Internal Revenue Service to establish a procedure by which parents may immediately claim the recovery rebate amount for children born in 2020. A child born during calendar year 2020 would be treated as if born in calendar year 2019 for the advance refund amount. The Secretary would establish a procedure for a taxpayer to file a claim during calendar year 2020, and valid claims would be refunded or credited as rapidly as possible.
