Trump admin plans citizenship disclosure rule
The Trump administration proposed requiring U.S. taxpayers to disclose their citizenship and work authorization status on the annual tax form to prevent illegal migrants from claiming refundable tax credits. The new question aims to verify immigration status, potentially reducing access to credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit for certain migrants, including those with temporary protected status or DACA recipients. Critics argue the policy could be used as an immigration enforcement tool, with some migrants potentially avoiding filing taxes or risking legal consequences.
