More than <strong>78,675,000 citizens<\/strong> have already had their <strong>tax returns<\/strong> processed. The <strong>average tax refund<\/strong> amount is <strong>$3,221<\/strong>, which is 4.6% higher than in 2024. <strong>Direct deposits<\/strong> are also higher ($3,284), about 4.2% more than last year.<\/p>\n<p>For your information, the <strong>IRS<\/strong> is celebrating the 50th birthday of the<strong> Earned Income Tax Credit<\/strong> in the<strong> United States<\/strong>. It has helped working families to get out of poverty and thrive. Are you a low-to-moderate income worker? If so, you may qualify for the <strong>EITC.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>IRS has increased the EITC over time<\/h2>\n<p>When President Gerald Ford signed the <strong>Tax Reduction Act<\/strong>, <strong>EITC<\/strong> became effective in <strong>1975<\/strong>. Back then, it was just up to<strong> $400<\/strong>. However, a taxpayer with a low income who qualifies for the full amount can get up to <strong>$7,830 in 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now, there are two things you should do if you would like to know if you qualify for the <strong>EITC<\/strong>. In the first place, visit the <strong>IRS<\/strong> website and use the EITC assistant. By using it, you will find out if you are eligible or not to get up to $7,830.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have found you are eligible, you should learn how to claim the <strong>Earned Income Tax Credit<\/strong> for low-to-moderate income taxpayers. For example, you will have to file Form 1040,<strong> U.S. Individual Income Tax Return.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>IRS &amp; the EITC worth up to $7,830<\/h2>\n<p>If you are a senior, you may need to use Form 1040-SR,<strong> U.S. Tax Return for Seniors<\/strong>. Do not forget that if you are claiming the credit for a child that qualifies, you must also file the<strong> Schedule EIC<\/strong> (Form 1040 or 1040-SR), Earned Income Credit with your 2024 tax return.<\/p>\n<p>What is more, the<strong> Schedule EIC<\/strong> is not required if claiming the credit without a child who qualifies. Once you file and claim the <strong>Tax Credit of up to $7,830<\/strong> you must wait for your refund.<\/p>\n<p>It could be sent to your<strong> bank account<\/strong> or to a <strong>debit card<\/strong>. Any errors on your return may delay the processing of your <strong>tax refund payment<\/strong>. Thus, you should avoid common errors. Use the IRS assistant to determine eligibility. The &#8220;Where&#8217;s my refund?&#8221; tool can also help you see when it will be sent.<\/p>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/credits-deductions\/individuals\/earned-income-tax-credit\/use-the-eitc-assistant<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American taxpayers are in luck because the IRS has made some important announcements.
