EIC reduced with SSA- entered

My AGI is less than the HoH Widow status,  dependant of $42,158

 

When I enter my W2 wages, my EIC is listed at the Max of $3,618

once I enter my SSA Survivor benefits, the EIC lowers to $3,418

 

I cannot figure out why it reduces by $200.00 when my AGI is less than the max listed above.

 

Anyone else seeing the same thing?

 

(Just to double check, I opened a new file and only entered these two items, plus personal data. no other deductions, credits, etc. and show the same decrease.)
