The correspondence I received from the IRS is AFTER I submitted my 2021 tax return. I am sure the IRS was aware of my earned income before they sent the correspondence. My parents did not receive the same letter.
According to the correspondence, it states I am eligible to receive the EIC because my reportable income was below the threshold, which is $51,464 for single filers. This is based on publication 596, which is referenced in the letter. I went ahead and completed the form, and we will see what happens. I will give an update on the final results, but if I end up receiving the $1,501.00 from the IRS, then my trust with TurboTax will be questionable for 2022 file return.
