Connecticut families may be eligible for Federal and State Earned Income Tax Credits, Child, and Education Tax Credits that they did not apply for in previous tax filings and may be owed money from their tax refund. This initiative is assisting families, even if they did not file a return or aren’t sure if eligible, with verifying past IRS filings and then assist with applying for these funds. Visit the website to schedule a virtual (quickest way to file) or in-person appointment starting in mid-January 2026.
