Question

As an essential medical worker at the start of the Covid, we were given a $2 pay increase and told there was tax breaks with it, but now I see nothing about it. Help!

What tax break?   Perhaps something in your state?    There is no Federal tax break for workers.

The COVID related tax breaks for employees are limited to qualified sick leave and qualified family leave.  There are not federal tax breaks for W-2 employees.
