American taxpayers are in luck because the IRS<\/strong> has made some important announcements. More than 78,675,000 citizens<\/strong> have already had their tax returns<\/strong> processed. The average tax refund<\/strong> amount is $3,221<\/strong>, which is 4.6% higher than in 2024. Direct deposits<\/strong> are also higher ($3,284), about 4.2% more than last year.<\/p>\n

For your information, the IRS<\/strong> is celebrating the 50th birthday of the Earned Income Tax Credit<\/strong> in the 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 EITC.<\/strong><\/p>\n

IRS has increased the EITC over time<\/h2>\n

When President Gerald Ford signed the Tax Reduction Act<\/strong>, EITC<\/strong> became effective in 1975<\/strong>. Back then, it was just up to $400<\/strong>. However, a taxpayer with a low income who qualifies for the full amount can get up to $7,830 in 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Now, there are two things you should do if you would like to know if you qualify for the EITC<\/strong>. In the first place, visit the 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

Once you have found you are eligible, you should learn how to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit<\/strong> for low-to-moderate income taxpayers. For example, you will have to file Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return.<\/strong><\/p>\n

IRS & the EITC worth up to $7,830<\/h2>\n

If you are a senior, you may need to use Form 1040-SR, 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 Schedule EIC<\/strong> (Form 1040 or 1040-SR), Earned Income Credit with your 2024 tax return.<\/p>\n

What is more, the Schedule EIC<\/strong> is not required if claiming the credit without a child who qualifies. Once you file and claim the Tax Credit of up to $7,830<\/strong> you must wait for your refund.<\/p>\n

It could be sent to your bank account<\/strong> or to a debit card<\/strong>. Any errors on your return may delay the processing of your tax refund payment<\/strong>. Thus, you should avoid common errors. Use the IRS assistant to determine eligibility. The “Where’s my refund?” tool can also help you see when it will be sent.<\/p>\n
