Families Receiving The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) (2018–2023)

Definition

The number of families who benefit from the Michigan Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). The percentage is based on the total number of tax filers.

Data Source

Michigan Department of Treasury

Notes

County and city data are rounded. The statewide total is based on unrounded numbers. Thus, rounded county data do not add up to the statewide total.

Counts are higher in 2021 due to the ARPA eligibility expansion to include people without children at the federal level. The entire increase can be explained by individuals without children (presumably 18-24 or 65+) becoming eligible for 2021 only.
