Because a large part of my paycheck is commission based, my income has taken a swan dive in the last year due to the recession. I didn't know it was this bad, though. I just got this letter from my company.


Dear Employee:

Based on your annual earnings, you may be eligible to receive the Earned Income Tax Credit from the federal government.... The Earned Income Tax Credit is a refundable federal income tax credit for low-income working individuals and families. The Earned income Tax Credit has no effect on certain welfare benefits. In most cases, Earned Income Tax Credit payments will not be used to determine eligibility for Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income, food stamps, low income housing, or most temporary assistance for needy families payments....


... Thanks?
