What is the Earned Income Tax Credit?

Some people are working, but their income is insufficient to continue working, so the government is providing subsidies to encourage them to work, or to households that are maintaining a business. 

Eligibility for the Earned Income Tax Credit

Eligibility

As of June 1st of the previous year (2022), households with a combined total of assets of less than 240 million won are eligible to apply. However, even if the total is less than 240 million won, there will be a difference in the payment amount. 

  • Less than 170 million won: Payment of applicable earned income tax credit 100%
