Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, TurboTax Deluxe for Windows does include the option to use 2019 income for purposes of computing the Earned Income Tax Credit.

TurboTax asks Did your earned income decrease in 2020? Select Yes.

TurboTax then shows the refund based on 2020 income. Click Continue. You will be asked to enter your 2019 earned income.

If your earned income was higher in 2019 than in 2020, you may get a higher EITC credit by using 2019 income. Try it both ways in TurboTax and see what works best for you.

For more information see Earned Income Credit.
