Created in 1975 as an antipoverty program, the EITC is a refundable tax credit for individuals earning moderate to low incomes. The EITC not only reduces the amount of federal income taxed owed by a qualifying taxpayer, but if no income taxes are owed, it returns money to the taxpayer in the form of a refund check, thereby supplementing their wages. The EITC not only provides benefits for lower income workers but is also an economic development tool for communities. By supplementing lower-wage work, the EITC helps make work pay more, thereby encouraging employment and promoting job retention. The EITC monies received are typically spent in the economies of the communities where these employees live and work.
