The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a tax break for working people with low to moderate income. It can put money back in your pocket—even if you don’t owe taxes.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
Who Qualifies? You need income from work or self-employment and must meet income limits based on your filing status and number of kids.
Why It Matters: It’s refundable, so you might get money back even if you don’t owe the IRS anything.
Bigger Families, Bigger Credits: The more qualifying children you have, the bigger the potential credit.
How to Claim It: File a tax return and include Schedule EIC. Accuracy is key—errors can delay your refund or disqualify your claim.
Why It Helps: The EITC is one of the most effective tools to reduce poverty and boost financial stability.
