EITC for Older Workers Act of 2025

HR 2972, the EITC for Older Workers Act of 2025, removes the age limit preventing workers over 65 from claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). It amends the tax code to eliminate the requirement that recipients must be "not attained age 65," directly affecting low-to-moderate income workers aged 65 and older who were previously ineligible. The change takes effect for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025, allowing these workers to access the credit for earned income. This is a direct policy change to expand eligibility under the existing EITC program.
