Know It!
State and federal Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC) are cash back tax refunds for working Californians. In 2020, more individuals and families than ever are eligible for the California Earned Income Tax Credit, with over $1 billion in refunds available for working Californians earning under $30,000 a year! With the combined state and federal credits, qualifying families can receive hundreds, even thousands, back just by filing their taxes. That's money you can use for rent, utilities, groceries, and other important expenses. And, if you qualify for CalEITC and have children under the age six, this year you could receive $1,000 from the Young Child Tax Credit. Visit CalEITC4me.org to learn more!
