EIC Credit for Dependent Studying Abroad outside US

[Sculpinlife]

Is it possible to claim my daughter as a dependent for in order to receive EIC credit? She satisfies all requirements, however, I am not sure about the residency. She is currently studying outside of the US and she has been away from home for than 6 months. She still gets her mail delivered to our home address in the US.
