Questions people ask

My baby doesn't have a Social Security number yet. What now?

Apply for the number first. The election needs it, and you can apply for the account at any time before the year your child turns 18.

My child was born in 2023. Can they still get money?

They can have an account, but not the $1,000. Many children age 10 and under can get the Dell family's $250 deposit instead.
