How does someone on welfare get a tax return?

Individuals on welfare can receive a tax return by filing their income tax return with the IRS, reporting any income they earned during the year, including income from welfare programs. If they qualify for refundable tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or the Child Tax Credit, they may receive a refund even if their taxable income is low or nonexistent. It's important for them to keep records of their income and any other relevant financial information to ensure accurate reporting. Additionally, some states may have their own tax credits or benefits that could affect their tax return.
