Full Title: WH Budget: Claiming Child Care Tax Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit Now Require a Social Security Number
(CNSNews.com) – The president’s budget requires that those receiving the child care tax credit and the earned income tax credit now must have a Social Security number to claim those tax credits.
“We talk about how to prioritize spending and how to look at programs that work and don't work. The childcare tax credit and the earned income tax credit. One of our proposals is that we are going to require you to have a Social Security number now to collect those,” White House Budget Director Mick Mulvaney said Monday during an off-camera briefing.
“Why is that? Because I can ask you for your money, I think, in good faith and good conscience and say, look, I need to take some of your tax money and give it to this family who deserves the childcare tax credit, but I can't do it to give the earned income tax credit, which is designed to help folks who work, to give it to somebody who is in the country and working illegally," he said.

It’s about time! The more I hear about this budget the more I like it. The earned income credit and child tax credit, although they shouldn’t even exist, should be only for Americans. Until they are removed completely…
None of my children have a Social Security number. We’ll pay the extra taxes just to help keep our kids out of some idiot database.
How many fake children have we paid for over the years?
Millions I bet..................

We hear so much of more than one adult claiming a child for the benefits. The only way to stop that abuse is to use Social Security numbers.

SSN has always been required for dependents and the child care tax credit. I got it when my kids were little.

I thought you had to have a ssan or tax payer ID to get any thing from the gummit.

I was going to say the same thing... I sure thought it was a requirement when I was claiming it years ago... For some reason, I was under the impression we did not even get out of the hospital without filling out the form to start birth certificate and get a social security # for them.

*******************
According to Mulvaney ,, he “thinks” the president meant the parents need a SSN... he damn well better have meant all persons on the tax return need a VALID SSN, if not they’ll just use 123-45-6789 or similar.
