AI Summary
This bill creates a 2-year pilot program and a permanent program to make periodic payments to eligible recipients of the federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). The pilot program will randomly select 100 Wisconsin residents who are likely to qualify for the EITC, and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will forward the estimated credit amounts to the state Department of Revenue, which will then distribute the funds to the recipients in monthly installments. The bill also establishes a second test group that will receive the EITC after filing their tax returns, for comparison. If the IRS and the Department of Revenue can reach an agreement, the pilot program will become permanent and apply to all eligible EITC claimants in Wisconsin.
