Polish taxpayers now have the option to file annual tax returns using the Twój e-PIT service. In many of these pre-filled declarations, the child tax credit is added automatically. However, it’s crucial to double-check the amounts! A recent article in Rzeczpospolita features a comment from Piotr Sekulski, PhD addressing this issue.
The full article is available at the following link and contains plenty of valuable insights on how the Twój e-PIT service handles the child tax credit.

„In some cases, when a child was born in 2023 and the tax credit for 2023 was applied only for a few months, the Twój e-PIT system simply copies that partial amount into the 2024 return. I’ve already seen a few such cases. If you don’t correct it, the parent will lose part of the tax benefit.”
