SF2102 (Legislative Session 94 (2025-2026))

Availability removal to claim the working family credit with an ITIN

AI Generated Summary

This bill, Minnesota Senate File No. 2102, proposes amending Minnesota Statutes Section 290.0671, which governs the Working Family Credit, a tax credit for low-income individuals and families. The key change introduced by this bill is the removal of eligibility for individuals who file taxes using an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).

Currently, some taxpayers who do not have a Social Security Number (SSN) but earn income and pay taxes using an ITIN may qualify for this credit. If this bill is enacted, those individuals would no longer be eligible to claim the Working Family Credit.

Other provisions of the statute, such as the phaseout rates and credit amounts based on earned income and number of dependents, remain unchanged. The bill has been introduced and referred to the Senate Taxes Committee for further consideration.
