Promoting EITC
Our goal is to help you generate media coverage about the EITC throughout the filing season.
IRS estimates four of five eligible taxpayers claim and get the EITC. “Don’t let workers leave money on the table!”
EITC is money that workers have earned, and they need to know how to claim it each year. Even if they normally don’t have to file taxes, we need to encourage working taxpayers to file a federal tax return to receive this refund credit to improve their lives.
