More Information

Important changes were made to EITC Interactive data in recent years. For Tax Years 2009 and on, data is part-year and uses 2010 Census boundaries. Additionally, some variables have changed their definitions, while other variables are missing. To help users effectively and accurately work with the EITC Interactive data, this brief explains what these changes mean for making comparisons over time and across different sources of IRS data.
