Dr. Friday 0:30 Hey, I’m Dr. Friday and the doctor is in the house on this really, really stormy Saturday. I don’t know if any of you, I know a lot of my clients actually have pets. And as you guys all know, I have Great Danes, and my biggest, Zar, my largest one is six and he does not like thunderstorms. So he is all buried in his blankets and underneath his head. It’s hilarious. But he is definitely not the one for the thunder. So every once in a while, it rumbles through, he is looking at me like, “What is going on Mama?” So just feel for you guys, if you’ve got pets because obviously there’s not much they can do, they can only look at us and say “Keep me safe.” And so we try.
Dr. Friday 1:11 So if you’ve got questions, you can call 615-737-9986. And Lavidious, if you can get that other screen, so I can see my callers, that would be great.

Dr. Friday 2:24 If you are not entitled to the child tax credit, you can either return it to the IRS. And I would make sure you keep very good records on how you do that so that the IRS doesn’t try to turn around and make you pay it on your tax return. Because whoever is receiving it, when it comes time to actually do your taxes, you are going to be claiming that on your tax return. So if you do not have a child and you’re getting it because, in 2020, you did have a child that qualified you. Or if keep in mind, this is an advance on the child tax credit. It is not like a person, you either need to give the money to the correct person and/or you need to have that conversation because I know what’s going to happen.
