Pacun Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Are strike benefits included in earned income for purposes of the earned income tax credit? Yes, strike benefits are considered earned income for purposes of the earned income tax credit. Rev. Rul. 78-191 states that earned income includes strike benefits paid to union members who picketed even though the same benefits were paid members who didn't picket. SORRY I meant "Interesting tax question about earned income" as the title, it seems that we cannot edit titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
