Hello everyone and welcome along to this Saturday May 14th’s American Finances live blog. As we do in this space every day, we’ll bring you the latest financial news, benefits programs updates and money-saving tips from across the USA.

Federal stimulus checks are a thing of the past, yet there are some other state-run programs that are putting money in the pockets of low-income and medium-income families, such as a one-off no-questions-asked 300 dollar stimulus check that is being sent out to Delawareans this May.

There is also a 250 dollar child tax credit payment coming to certain taxpayers in Connecticut, following a new piece of legislation signed this week.

Even if you’re not from Delaware or Connecticut, there are many other benefits programs available and we’ll break some of them down for you.
