Congress Makes Changes to Popular Tax Credits

[Yardley CPA]

An article from the Tax Adviser that speaks to changes Congress recently made.  I tried to copy the actual article but I couldn't paste it correctly for some reason.

Interesting. No more EIC on amended returns after an ITIN holder gets his SS card.

I don't understand the last sentence of the article. Will the IRS have until May 15 or Feb 15 to issue EIC check because returns will be reviewed more careful next year.
