What is the Earned Income Credit?
The EIC (also known as EITC, earned income tax credit) is a benefit for certain people who work and have low to moderate wages. A tax credit means more money in your pocket. It reduces the amount of tax you owe and may also give you a refund.

You qualify for EITC if:

• you have earned income and adjusted gross income within certain limits; AND
• you meet certain basic rules; AND
• you either:
  • meet the rules for those without a qualifying child; OR
  • have a child that meets all the qualifying child rules for you, or your spouse if you file a joint return.

Use the EITC Assistant to find out your filing status, if your child is a qualifying child, if you are eligible, and estimate the amount of the credit you may get.
