Income Limits for Scholarship Applications for EITC

---

As of 4-12-18 DCED guidelines allow a parent with a child with 2017 verified income less than $93,645 to apply for an EITC scholarship for their child.  For each additional dependent child on the parents tax return living in the household an additional $15,608 of income is allowed.  For example two dependent children would allow the family to make less than $109,253 and qualify for EITC scholarship application.

Children with disabilities are allowed higher family income and have a different formula for calculating maximum family income.

PreK EITC and OSTC scholarship applications use the same income limits.  OSTC students must live in a designated low achieving public school district.
