My husband and I receive benefits from the va I am his caregiver besides that the only income I got was a 12000 savings bond from 2000 would that qualify as earned income

Will we still receive the credits for our kids? My mother in law also lives with us and we fully support her she worked a little during the year should we claim her?

Nothing that you mentioned would count as taxable earned income, so you would not receive any credits or deductions for dependents or children.
