You can still claim your child for EIC purposes even though she is not your dependent. According to IRS.gov. your child qualifies:
-
Relationship Your son, daughter, adopted child1, stepchild, foster child2 or a descendent of any of them, such as your grandchild Brother, sister, half brother, half sister, step brother, step sister or a descendant of any of them, such as a niece or a nephew.
-
Age At the end of the filing year, your child was younger than you (or your spouse if filing a joint return) and younger than 19At the end of the filing year, your child was younger than you (or your spouse if filing a joint return), younger than 24, and a full-time student. At the end of the filing year, your child was any age and permanently and totally disabled3
-
Residency The child must have the same main home as you (or your spouse if filing a joint return) in the United States4 for more than half of the tax year.
i would imagine your child qualifies because they lived with you for more that 6 months in 2019.
