The IRS is sending letters to more than 9 million individuals and families who appear to qualify for a variety of key tax benefits but did not claim them [ [link removed] ] by filing a 2021 federal income tax return. Many in this group may be eligible to claim some or all of the 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit, the Child Tax Credit, the Earned Income Tax Credit and other tax credits depending on their personal and family situation. These and other tax benefits were expanded under last year's American Rescue Plan Act and other recent legislation. Even so, the only way to get the valuable benefits is to file a 2021 tax return. Also, to help people claim these benefits, without charge, Free File will remain open for an extra month this year, until Nov. 17. This news release is also available in Spanish [ [link removed] ] and Simplified Chinese [ [link removed] ].
