Low-income families have until November 15 to claim tax benefits in 2022 by using this simplified tax filing tool. Families entitled to these benefits — Child Tax Credits, Earned Income Tax Credits, and any missing amounts of third stimulus payments — must apply for them by November 15 to receive them. Failure to apply may mean the loss of thousands of dollars.
This form usually takes about 15 minutes to complete, and tax documents are not required. To claim additional money with the Earned Income Tax Credit, you will need your W-2(s) from your employer.
You may have received Letter 6550 from the IRS explaining that you may be eligible for these benefits. Watch this video for more information.
