TuboTax Is Wrong re Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
TuboTax 2019 Home & Business downloadable PC software’s pop up “On Demand Tax Guidance” incorrectly states:
If you do not have a qualifying child, you (and your spouse if filing a joint return):
- Must be at least 25 years old and under age 65 at the end of the tax year
Here is the correct statement from the IRS
You (or your spouse if filing a joint return) must have been at least 25 but under 65 years old at the end of the tax year.
The difference: “or your spouse” not “and your spouse”
