From IRS@Broad Street Bully
Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Additional Child Tax Credit
Only for the delay
I claimed my daughter made over 65
Still got my taxes back early
Eitc is for people that made less than 40 with 1 kid
The additional child tax credit is for people with 2 kids
Taxpayers who claim the Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit may experience a refund hold. According to the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, the IRS cannot issue these refunds before mid-February. The IRS expects the earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or debit cards starting February 27, 2018, if these taxpayers chose direct deposit and there are no other issues with their tax return.
Why is my refund being held?
If you claim the EITC or ACTC on your tax return, the IRS must hold your refund until mid-February. The law requires the IRS to hold the entire refund — even the portion not associated with the EITC or ACTC. Like previous years, some tax refunds may be held if there are questions about the tax return or the IRS needs more information.
I think they are holding them all, regarding if it’s your first timing using the credits or not. Says they won’t even process them until the 27th of February if you have it on there
I guess they cutting down on people “borrowing” kids and family members to get it
