Thinking about your use of the payments from the "Child Tax Credit" did you:
Asked of: CTC_YN = 1
Child Tax Credit used for savings or investments · Asked in 9 waves, 2021–2022 · 106,046 responses · weighted estimates computed from individual responses
Periods loaded: week34, week35, week36, week37, week38, week39, week40, week41, week42. Select-all checkbox item. Code 1 = box checked; 0 = left unchecked by a respondent who checked another box in the same question (derived from Census's -99); -99 = saw the question and checked nothing (skipped). The question offers no 'none of these' box, so a respondent to whom no option applied looks like one who skipped it (-99 on every box); shares of 1 and 0 are among respondents who checked at least one box.
Shares of people who gave an answer. Each column is one wave, evenly spaced rather than to scale in time; hover for exact shares.
