The Working Income Tax Benefit

The Working Income Tax Benefit is a refundable tax credit that can be claimed by eligible low-income individuals and families beginning with their 2007 income tax returns. A disability supplement to the WITB is also available for individuals (other than a dependant) who qualify for the Disability Tax Credit, meet the eligibility criteria for the WITB, and have earned income over a certain level.
