Podcast: The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and Tax Refunds for Low-Income Tax Filers

The Institute of Research on Poverty (IRP) hosted Mr. Damon Jones, an economist at the University of Chicago's Harris School of Public Policy, to talk about how the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and other refundable tax credits can combine to create a large once-a-year payment for low-income tax filers, and how that payment structure affects the ways that those funds are used.
