Retirement tax questions

Are you sure you qualify for EIC?

  

You qualify for the EITC if:  

  • you have earned incomeand your adjusted gross income is within certain limits; AND  
  • you meet certain basic rules (investment income limits, age, etc); AND  
  • you either:  
  • meet the rules for those without a qualifying child; OR  
  • have a child that meets all the qualifying child rules for you (or your spouse if filing a joint return).  

  

Use the EITC Assistant to find out your filing status, your child’s status as a qualifying child, your eligibility for the credit, and estimate the amount of the credit you may get.
