What is the Oregon Earned Income Credit and am I eligible for it?

Asked a year ago
The Oregon Earned Income Credit (EIC) is a refundable tax credit available to low-income individuals and families. It is designed to provide financial assistance to those who are working but earn below a certain income threshold. To be eligible for the Oregon EIC, you must meet certain criteria. This includes having earned income from eligible sources such as wages, self-employment, or farming, and being an Oregon resident for the entire year. Your adjusted gross income (AGI) must also be within the specified limits for your filing status. If you meet these requirements, you may be eligible to claim the Oregon EIC when filing your state tax return. It is worth noting that eligibility and credit amount may vary each tax year, so it is recommended to consult the Oregon Department of Revenue or a tax professional for the most up-to-date information.
