Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is reminding parents that the deadline to claim a $100 per child tax rebate is midnight on Monday. Walker, who is up for reelection in November. has said that the rebate is being distributed as the result of a recent budget surplus.
The Governor and lawmakers also implemented a state sales tax holiday for early August on items such as clothing, school supplies, and computers in the same bill.
Parents will need to submit a few personal details, such as the name, date of birth, and Social Security numbers for themselves and their children.
