Thanks so just wanted to confirm before submitting Form 15111.
The child lived with my spouse (before and after we were married) the entire time. We filed jointly, and my wife had no income. The child only started living with me after the marriage in October 2024.
Does the IRS count the time the child lived with my spouse (before and after we were married) toward the 6 month residency rule for EITC since we filed jointly?
wording wording on form 15111, "Did the child live with you (or your spouse, if you filed a joint return for 2024) in the U.S. for more than 6 months"
I just want to make sure we’re interpreting that correctly. Also if i am still nor convinced , can i claim EITC next year for 2025 along with 2024?
Thanks again
