Have You Heard?
Earned Income and Child Tax Credits Making Work Pay Credit

Earned Income and Child Tax Credits:
You could qualify! Did you work in 2009? You may be eligible for the Earned Income Credit (EIC) – even if you don’t owe income tax. In addition, many families that earned more than $3,000 may qualify for the Child Tax Credit (CTC) refund.

New Making Work Pay Credit:
Many workers got this new credit in their paychecks. However, if you were self-employed or did not earn enough to have income tax withheld, you may be able to claim this credit on your tax return.

Click on the links below to get more information on these tax credits and learn how to find the local Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) site near you. These links are provided by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (cbpp.org) as part of their 2010 Earned Income Credit and Child Tax Credit Outreach.
