“We created this state tax rebate to give Connecticut families with children some additional relief,” Gov. Ned Lamont said. “State law requires the application period to close on July 31. I strongly urge all families who claimed at least one dependent child on their federal income tax return to submit an application as soon as possible so that this rebate can be sent to you with no delays.”
Any Connecticut resident who claimed at least one dependent child on their 2021 federal income tax return may be eligible if they meet the following income guidelines:
| Filer status | Income threshold |
| Single or married filing separately | $100,000 or less |
| Head of household | $160,000 or less |
| Married filing jointly | $200,000 or less |
Filers with higher income rates may be eligible to receive a reduced rebate based on their income.
