- What makes the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) different from other poverty-fighting programs? The amount of the credit is doubled if the head of household is attending college. The tax credit is phased out gradually, rather than at a specific income cutoff point. The amount of the credit is not determined by the number of dependent children in the household. The EITC doesn't require the recipient to pay a minimum amount of income tax in order to receive the credit. It creates less of an incentive to work than other programs.arrow_forwardvarious types of worker’s compensation benefits for truck drivers in canadaarrow_forwardKindly assist.arrow_forward
