Owners/agents of Multifamily-assisted housing are encouraged to let residents know about the online tax filing tool GetYourRefund where they can get free tax help from IRS-certified volunteers.
As a reminder, the Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit are large tax refund payments that people can receive when they file a tax return. The 2021 American Rescue Plan expanded who can receive these payments and increased the amount of money available to many families and individuals. These tax credits are not income. Receiving these benefits will not impact eligibility for other federal benefits.
