What Is IRS Publication 5534-B (Haitian Creole Version)?

Publication 5534-B (ht) is the official IRS fact sheet translated into Haitian Creole (Kreyòl Ayisyen). Titled “Pèman Avans Kredi Enpo pou Timoun an 2021” (Advanced Payments of the 2021 Child Tax Credit – The Basics), it was released in June 2021 (Catalog Number 49492M) to help Haitian Creole-speaking families understand the expanded Child Tax Credit under the American Rescue Plan Act.

The publication answers the four most important questions in simple language:

  • SA KI FONDAMANTAL YO? (What are the basics?)
  • KIYÈS? (Who qualifies?)
  • KILÈ? (When will payments arrive?)
  • KÒMAN? (How do I get the payments?)

It is one of several multilingual IRS resources created specifically for the 2021 advance Child Tax Credit program.

Key Highlights from Publication 5534-B Haitian Creole

The document explains that eligible families received up to 50% of their 2021 Child Tax Credit as monthly advance payments in 2021. The remaining half was claimed when filing the 2021 federal tax return.

Payment Amounts (2021):

  • Up to $3,600 per qualifying child under age 6 at the end of 2021
  • Up to $3,000 per qualifying child ages 6–17 at the end of 2021

Monthly Advance Payments:

  • $300 per month per child under 6
  • $250 per month per child ages 6–17

Payments were sent automatically from July 15, 2021, through December 15, 2021 (six monthly payments).

Who Qualifies? (Eligibility Rules in Plain Language)

According to the Haitian Creole publication, you qualify for the full maximum credit and advance payments if your modified adjusted gross income (AGI) is:

  • $75,000 or less – Single or Married Filing Separately
  • $112,500 or less – Head of Household
  • $150,000 or less – Married Filing Jointly or Qualifying Widow(er)

Additional requirements:

  • You (or your spouse) must have a main home in the United States for more than half of 2021.
  • The child must meet standard Child Tax Credit rules (dependent, valid SSN or ITIN, etc.).
  • You do not need earned income or to owe taxes to receive the credit.

Important: Even families who usually do not file tax returns could receive payments by using the IRS Non-Filer Sign-Up Tool.

How the Advance Payments Worked (KÒMAN?)

The IRS automatically calculated and sent payments to most eligible taxpayers who filed a 2020 tax return.

  • No action needed for most people who already filed their 2020 return.
  • Families who do not normally file could sign up using the Non-Filer Sign-Up Tool on IRS.gov.
  • Anyone who did not want the monthly payments could unenroll through the Child Tax Credit Update Portal.

All tools and more information were available at the dedicated page: IRS.gov/childtaxcredit2021.

Why This Haitian Creole Publication Still Matters?

Even though the monthly advance payments ended in December 2021, Publication 5534-B (ht) remains a valuable reference for:

  • Understanding how the 2021 credit worked
  • Tax preparers assisting Haitian Creole-speaking clients
  • Historical records or amended returns
  • Community organizations and advocates helping families

Many families still needed to file a 2021 tax return to claim the second half of the credit (the “remainder”) even if they received advance payments.
