If you are under the age of 25 you are not eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit. If you entered your correct date of birth in the My Info section of the program, TurboTax would not have calculated an EIC on your tax return.
Look at your Form 1040 Line 27. There should not be an amount entered.
Once you submit your return it is like dropping it in the mailbox. You cannot make any changes without amending your return.
At this point, do not do anything until you get a response from the state as they may make the changes on their own. Which state? Every state has different rules so you may or may not qualify, but are you sure you received it because if it is an age thing and you put in your correct age, TurboTax would not give you the credit if you do not qualify. The only way you qualify if you are under 25 is if you have a child for federal.
