MORE ON TAX CREDITS
Did you know that almost every current and former foster youth are eligible for the federal Earned Income Tax Credit and the California Earned Income Tax Credit (CalEITC), a cash-back tax credit that puts money back into the pockets of California’s working families and individuals? More than 600,000 young adults in California, including current and former foster youth, are expected to qualify for the CalEITC this upcoming tax season.
Did you know that parents with a child ages 0-6 also qualify for the Child Tax Credit and California Young Child Tax Credit? This could mean hundreds or thousands of dollars in tax refunds for transition age youth in care who are young parents.
Did you know that TAY who are undocumented can now file for these credits without a social security number, using their ITIN?
