Missouri State Tax Credits
Whether Missouri offers its own Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) on top of the federal one.
How This Works
The federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) works the same way regardless of which state you live in — up to $8,231 for the 2026 tax year, depending on income and qualifying children. What varies by state is whether your state also gives you a credit on your state tax return, usually calculated as a percentage of whatever federal EITC you qualify for. State legislatures change these rates fairly often, so always confirm the current rate on your state's own tax site before filing.
Missouri's State EITC
A nonrefundable Working Family Tax Credit — one of only four state EITCs that isn't refundable, so it mainly helps filers who already owe state tax. Confirm the current percentage on the state's site.
