The TurboTax calculation is very reliable, so there's probably not a fix to be made.
Your federal EIC amount is computed by referencing the EIC Table and comparing:
- The EIC amount based on earned income, and
- The EIC amount based on adjusted gross income (AGI).
The smaller amount of EIC is what's used for your EIC, regardless of whether earned income or AGI is higher.
See the TurboTax Help article What are the qualifications for the Earned Income Credit (EIC or EITC)? for more information.
