🚨 PARENTS… THE EITC WENT UP FOR 2026
The maximum 2026 Earned Income Tax Credit is:
No qualifying children: $664
1 child: $4,427
2 children: $7,316
3+ children: $8,231
However,
Your actual EITC depends on your earned income, filing status, number of qualifying children and other eligibility rules.
Three kids does NOT automatically equal an $8,231 credit. 🤷🏾♀️
