Sacramento Bee–
The California state budget could extend a tax break to low-income families of undocumented immigrants.
Assembly Democrats want Gov. Jerry Brown to expand the state’s Earned Income Tax Credit in such a way that people who do not have Social Security numbers can apply for it.
The proposal is meant to help poor Californians recover some of their state income tax. Last year, a household with two children and an adjusted gross income of $22,309 would have received a $2,467 credit, according to the Franchise Tax Board.
To be eligible, they’d have to have an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. It’s a tax-processing number the IRS uses to collect tax from people who do not have Social Security numbers.
