Virginia employers are required to display a workplace notice informing employees about the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), a tax benefit for low- to moderate-income workers.
This poster helps ensure employees are aware of potential tax credits that could significantly increase their annual refund.

What Is the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)?
The Earned Income Tax Credit is a refundable tax credit designed to support working individuals and families with lower incomes.
- Available at the federal level and in many states, including Virginia
- Eligibility depends on income, filing status, and the number of qualifying children
- Can reduce taxes owed or increase refunds
For Tax Year 2025, the maximum federal EITC ranges from:
- $649 (no children)
- Up to $8,046 (three or more children)

Why Compliance Matters
Failing to display required labor law posters can result in:
- State penalties or fines
- Increased risk during audits
- Employee complaints or legal exposure
More importantly, the EITC poster helps employees access financial benefits they may not otherwise know about, supporting workforce well-being and retention.
