NOTE:

 The deadline to file your 2026 taxes was April 15, 2026. If you didn’t claim your Earned Income Tax Credit but think you may qualify, you may be able to backfile for past years or amend your 2025 return. FreeTaxUSA and SimplifyCT are available for help. 

If you got your EITC this year, we want to hear from you! Let us know how it went.

What is the EITC?

The earned income tax credit is a refund from the federal government for working people. It is one of the largest programs for people and families to build their financial cushions in the United States.
