The tax money might be an extremely welcome windfall during a period of high inflation. To homes that would be eligible for increased child tax credit installments and the 3rd stimulus check, if only they submitted a tax return, the IRS is issuing letters.
9 Million Letters To The Beneficiaries
According to the tax department, it would distribute more than 9 million mailings to spread the information. The letters are being sent to households that often don’t submit tax refunds because they don’t make enough money to warrant doing so.
The third stimulus check of $1,400, the expanded child tax credit, and the expanded Earned Income Credit for those without children can all be claimed by submitting a federal tax return.
The child tax credit payment increased between $2,000 and $3,600 as well as between $3,000 and $3,000 for kids between the ages of 6 and 17 last year. This year, the credit is returning to its previous amount, although some supporters are hopeful that a second round of the increased rewards will occur soon. The minimum income requirement for an individual to file a federal return for 2021 is $12,550, and for married couples, it is $25,100.
What Is The Deadline For Filing Taxes?
Any more funds made available by a 2021 federal return may be a very pleasant windfall at a period of four-decade-high inflation rates. The deadline for filing tax returns after requesting an extension is Monday, October 17.
However, there are no penalties for filing a late return if the person does not owe any taxes, and they have 3 years from the initial filing deadline to do so. The IRS points out that direct deposit refunds on electronically submitted forms are the fastest way to receive your money.
There are a few options for returning items. The IRS’s free file program is one option, and it is currently open through November 17. A site the government created for child tax credit payouts allows families making below $12,500 & married couples earning below $25,000 to file simplified tax return reports Morningstar.
