8. The bigest issue I hear about for low income people is the Earned Income Credit
Mon Jan 9, 2023, 10:48 AM
Jan 2023

There were a lot of children double and triple claimed. There were multiple people claiming that they were the one providing the largest support for a child.

The IRS started to hold those returns in order to check for these duplicates instead of crediting the first applicant.

The requests for proof of support were perceived as harassment and the delays of payment had these filers very angry.

I wonder if these angry filers have a clue what these politicians would like to do to the EIC.
