Author: Michael Brostek
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1428987452
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 460

The Advance Earned Income Tax Credit (AEITC) allows individuals to receive a portion of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) in their paychecks, instead of receiving all of it when filing their year-end tax return.

This report determines: (1) how many individuals received the AEITC compared with the EITC in tax years 2002 through 2004, what actions, if any, have been taken to increase use, and the potential for increases in use in the future; (2) the extent of noncompliance, if any, associated with the AEITC; and (3) how well the IRS¿s procedures address the areas of noncompliance. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
