We share data with select state agencies when there is a benefit to our customers.
If eligibility for the Working Families Tax Credit also qualifies you for other benefits or incentives, we want to make it easier for you to get them by sharing select data with the agency administering those programs.
State and federal laws allow the agency to provide data about the WFTC program in certain circumstances.
Revenue only shares data when the other party:
- Can legally receive the information.
- Has a lawful reason for using it.
Revenue does not provide personal information for:
- Information about citizenship or immigration status, which Revenue is prohibited from disclosing by law. See RCW 43.17.425.
- Marketing, surveys, or commercial purposes.
Data shared will be limited to the amount needed and allowable by law.
Revenue uses data sharing agreements, legally binding contracts, with other agencies that list the conditions for using the data and the penalties for disclosing it, whether intentional or unintentional. (See: RCW 19.02.115(6); RCW 82.32.330(6); RCW 84.08.210(4))
