👨🏿🏫 Today’s financial literacy lesson is focused on refundable and non-refundable tax credits. A refundable tax credit is a credit that has the ability to take the tax payer’s liability down below 0 and that amount is refunded in cash to the tax payer.
A non-refundable tax credit can offset a tax payer’s liability owed, but cannot earn them a cash refund.
Example: If a tax payer has a bill of $200 with a $500 refundable credit the tax payer would receive a $300 refund.
Conversely, If a tax payer has a bill of $200 with a $500 non-refundable credit the tax payer would still have no tax liability but ineligible for a tax refund.
