  1. tax credit

    A tax credit is a type of tax incentive provided by governments to either individuals or businesses, which it subtracts directly from the amount of tax owed. This decreases the total amount of money a taxpayer owes to the government, thus effectively reducing their total tax liability. Different types of tax credits can be applied for various purposes, such as for education expenses, energy-efficient home improvements, or for providing care to dependent children or elderly family members.

  1. Tax credit

    A tax credit is a sum deducted from the total amount a taxpayer owes to the state. A tax credit may be granted for various types of taxes, such as an income tax, property tax, or VAT. It may be granted in recognition of taxes already paid, as a subsidy, or to encourage investment or other behaviors. In some systems tax credits are 'refundable' to the extent they exceed the relevant tax. Tax systems may grant tax credits to businesses or individuals, and such grants vary by type of credit.
