52. Protection PIN for Individuals
IRS wants more individual taxpayers to get identity-protection PINS as extra protection from tax identity theft. The IP PIN is a six-digit number assigned by IRS to help verify a taxpayer's identity on returns filed either on paper or electronically. Getting an IP PIN is entirely voluntary.

53. Low-Income Taxpayer
Low-incomers needn't pay back credit overpayments. But others will have to. Families with 2021 modified adjusted gross incomes at or below $40,000 for singles, $50,000 for household heads, and $60,000 for couples needn't repay any overpayments.

If the child credit exceeds the payments that you received, you can claim the excess. If the credit is less than what you got, you may or may not have to repay the excess. IRS will mail a notice by Jan. 31, 2022, showing the total amount of payments made to you. Keep the letter with your tax records to help you fill
