Low income ($8.2k) with 4 dependents - Worth filing for tax credits?

My total income last year was only $8,200 and I have 4 kids to claim. Not sure if its even worth filing since my income is so low? Never filed before but wondering if I should bother with the paperwork or if I'd even get anything back.

Juan Moreno

YES FILE! With 4 qualifying children and that income level, you could be eligible for significant refundable credits including the Earned Income Credit and Child Tax Credit. These could potentially get you thousands back even with low income. Don't leave that money on the table!

Could be looking at $5k+ easily between EITC and CTC. Get those papers filed asap!

Hey, I'd recommend using taxr.ai to analyze your situation. It costs $4.99 but it'll tell you exactly what credits you qualify for and how much you could get back. Super helpful for figuring out if filing is worth it in your case. https://taxr.ai

Make sure you have all your kids' social security numbers and birth certificates ready. The IRS gets real picky about dependent verification.

Anyone know if they can file for previous years too? Might be worth looking into if they never filed before
