Saving American Workers’ Benefits Act of 2025

The Saving American Workers’ Benefits Act of 2025 requires taxpayers claiming the Child Tax Credit or Earned Income Credit to provide Social Security Numbers (SSNs) that confirm the individual is authorized to work in the United States. Specifically, the SSN must be issued to a U.S. citizen or under specific Social Security Act provisions indicating work eligibility, and must be issued before the tax return deadline. The bill updates tax code references to replace "TIN" (Taxpayer Identification Number) with "SSN" in certain procedures and removes an exception for SSNs that do not indicate work authorization. These changes apply to tax returns for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, directly affecting individuals seeking these federal tax credits.
