Eligibility Criteria for the Saver’s Tax Credit in 2023 & 2024

What Is the Saver’s Credit? This Saver’s Tax Credit article has been updated for 2023-2024 tax years. The Saver’s Credit (also referred to as Retirement Savings Contribution Credit by some) is an obscure but highly advantageous tax credit provided by the IRS to encourage low and moderate income taxpayers to contribute retirement savings via an IRA, 401K, 403B or 457B account – or other retirement accounts recognized by IRS – accounts.

The Saver’s Credit stands out among tax deductions in that it provides actual tax credits rather than simple deductions. A deduction simply subtracts a value from your taxable income; with credits, on the other hand, actually giving back that entire dollar value or subtracting it from what taxes owe – making them far more valuable monetarily than deductions. Unfortunately for Saver’s Credit holders however, its non-refundable status means it can only reduce what tax you owe – not provide refunds of that kind!
