Safeguarding American Workers’ Benefits Act

This bill modifies Social Security Number (SSN) requirements for claiming the Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit. It specifies that qualifying SSNs must be issued to U.S. citizens (or under specific Social Security Act provisions) and issued before the tax return due date. The changes apply to tax years beginning after December 31, 2024, and update related tax code references to use "social security number" instead of "taxpayer identification number." These are technical adjustments to eligibility criteria, not new benefits or funding.
