Vermont Offers Generous Child Tax Credits with No SSN Requirement
Thousands of Vermont families might receive $1,000 child tax credits this tax season. This credit supports families with children and is among the highest in the nation. Vermont’s program, unlike the federal child tax credit, does not require a Social Security Number (SSN), making it accessible to illegal immigrants and others without SSNs.
The Vermont child tax credit helps households with children under 6 throughout their formative years. Adjusted gross income (AGI) limitations limit the $1,000 benefit to certain families. For single or joint filers earning over $125,000, the refund will be decreased and phase out at $175,000. The $20 cut for every $1,000 in income beyond $125,000 allows benefits to diminish gradually.
Vermont taxpayers can claim the child tax credit using ITINs. This strategy allows immigrants, foreign investors, and others without SSNs to join, expanding the program’s beneficiaries. The Vermont tax credit program supports all families financially by recognizing the efforts of varied groups.
