Are you eligible for an additional tax refund?
Wisconsin's $100 Child Refund Program
Between May 15, 2018 and July 2, 2018 the Wisconsin Department of Revenue will accept claims for the $100 per child sales tax rebate.
Have a dependent child/children?
You're likely eligible for a $100 (per child) sales tax rebate.
Sound fiscal management and a strong economy have resulted in a state budget surplus of almost $400 million for the State of Wisconsin. Recently, a law was passed to return some of that surplus to taxpayers in the form of a Child Sales Tax Rebate. If you're eligible, you can claim it between May 15 and July 2.
What is the Child Sales Tax Rebate?
It is a $100 rebate for sales and use tax paid on purchases made for raising a dependent child in 2017. You may claim $100 for each qualified child.
Who can claim the Child Sales Tax Rebate?
If you have a qualified child, you're likely eligible. A child may only be claimed by one individual.
A qualified child must be:
- Under age 18 on December 31, 2017
- A dependent of the claimant for tax year 2017
- A Wisconsin resident on December 31, 2017
- A United States citizen
How do I claim my $100 (per child) Child Sales Tax Rebate?
The fastest and most convenient way is to go to https://childtaxrebate.wi.gov where you will find more details, frequently asked questions and information. You can apply for the Child Sales Tax Rebate online 24/7, May 15 - July 2.
If you don't have internet access, you may file a claim by phone at (608) 266-KIDS (5437), Monday – Friday from 7:45 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Please bear in mind that going online will be faster and more convenient

Video Stories
Check out the Video Stories of Leon, Samantha and Leon.
2018 State of the State Address
Governor Scott Walker recognized two FSET participants at the 2018 State of the State address - one from the NorthCentral Region! Below is the excerpt from his speech:
Since we started requiring employment and worker training, more than 25,000 people have gained employment. People like Thomas from Stevens Point. Thomas had been working a series of seasonal jobs. With our training program, he now has a permanent job with MedXcel at St. Michael’s in Stevens Point and says it’s his dream job.
Thomas was also highlighted in the Year 2 Report for the FSET program. Below is that profile.
2017 State of the State Address
Governor Scott Walker recognized two FSET participants at the 2017 State of the State address - both from the NorthCentral Region! Check out the video clip here! Below is an excerpt from his speech:
In addition to student success and accountable government, people told us over and over again that we need to be rewarding work. Today, I am proud to report that more than 21,000 people have gone through our Food Share Employment Training program and are working in Wisconsin.
They are people like Sandy in northern Wisconsin. She was struggling as a single mother of four when she signed up for the program. Within weeks, Sandy had multiple job offers and is now employed full-time. Sandy's story is a model of success, and now she gives back, as a speaker and mentor in the Eagle River community.
And people like Leon, who now works in Wisconsin Rapids. Our program staff helped him get the skills he needed to be employed and now he has a dream of starting his own cleaning business.
2016 State of the State Address
In 2016, two other NorthCentral's customers, Jessica and Thomas were recognized by Gov. Walker at the 2016 State of the State address. Watch that video here.
