@ryangd You cannot get earned income credit for a 2022 tax return unless you worked and earned income. If you did not work you will not get earned income credit. The only possible way you could get EIC would be if the disability income you are receiving is reported on a W-2. If you are getting Social Security disability you are not eligible for EIC.
Earned Income Credit—-the rules are back to the “old” rules—
Those under 25 and over 65 without children are not eligible as they were uniquely in 2021. And you cannot use your income from any earlier tax year to get the EIC for a 2022 return. There is no “lookback” for 2022. EIC for 2022 will be based on the income you earned by working in 2022.
