Yes, the tax laws affecting your tax return have changed this year. You are getting this message because you have no taxable income on your return.
During the pandemic, you were able to use non-taxable income like Social Security and VA benefits to claim certain tax credits like Earned Income Credit and Child Tax Credit. These changes were temporary and not renewed by Congress for 2022.
In 2022, we return to the pre-pandemic rules for these credits. The credits are smaller and you must have earned income from working to claim them.
