Deductions & credits

No. Your business loss with your W2 income gives you a negative Adjusted Gross Income.  This will not allow you to get the  Earned Income Credit. 

If you overide a worksheet, there may be some complications. In fact, overriding may invalidate our 100% Accurate Calculations Guarantee. Additionally, returns that contain overrides cannot be e-filed.

One way to find out is to use the IRS Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) Assistant. It will ask all of the appropriate questions.
