ATLANTA — Senators passed a bill Wednesday that would eliminate small tax credit refunds to low-income citizens.
Currently, everyone earning less than $20,000 gets a tax credit and a refund for any credit exceeding their income tax liability. The refunds usually are less than $30 per person.
House Bill 1198 keeps the credit in place but eliminates the refund check for any extra tax credit.
