Individuals who worked last year with an income of less than $63,698 are encouraged to explore their eligibility for the EITC. With the potential for a refund of up to $7,430 when filing a return with qualifying children, the EITC presents a substantial opportunity for individuals without a qualifying child to claim a smaller credit of up to $600, aiding them in securing necessary financial resources.
Highlighting the significance of EITC Awareness Day, the IRS emphasizes that one out of five workers do not claim the EITC they have earned, leading to billions of dollars being left unclaimed each year. Pisgah Legal Services’ certified tax preparers are equipped to inquire about individuals’ eligibility for the EITC and other refundable tax credits, ensuring that those eligible receive the maximum refunds due.
