Is EITC added to refund amount? If so, does the amount change for the better at the end of filing?

It’s saying the EITC is added to refund along with dependent claims but refund amount is not changing.

for the Earned Income Credit—-the rules are back to the “old” rules—

Those under 25 and over 65 without children are not eligible as they were uniquely in 2021.   And you cannot use your income from any earlier tax year to get the EIC for a 2022 return.  There is no “lookback” for 2022.  EIC for 2022 will be based on the income you earned by working in 2022.

It will change as soon as TurboTax determines whether you qualify for it or not. If you qualify, it will already be included in your refund amount.
