It displays a list of several credits, one of which is EIC, and asks if you want to see if you qualify for any of the listed credits. If you say Yes, you get to the EIC questions.
Of course, you can always go to the EIC questions directly. Type eic in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to eic."
