In addition to what has been previously posted, to qualify for the earned income credit with no qualifying dependents, you must be at least age 25, but under 65 years of age.  Moreover, the basic qualifying rules for the EIC require that your investment income, i.e., dividends, interest, capital gains, be under $10,300 for tax year 2022.  You must also have a valid Social Security number and be a US citizen or a resident alien.
