This is the exact situation I have. Literally nothing changed for me from 2023 to 2024. And my EIC is less than half of what was awarded last year. My refund is almost 3,000 less than last years, with zero changes. Maybe there is an issue with turbo tax calculations?
Side note. I own my home and state refund was about $500 but my boyfriend who rents is getting almost $2,000 back.
I also earn more than double what he does and have 2 kids. His tax return is more than double mine with no kids.
Seems like the best way to get a higher refund is to work part time.
