Quick question, What am I missing? It appears that I qualify for the EIC, but Turbo Tax AI indicates that we don't meet the age requirements, but both of us do?

You did not qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit because your ages did not meet the requirement. To qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit without any qualifying children, at least one spouse must be between the ages of 25-65 at the end of the tax year. Since you were 50 years old and your spouse was 44 years old, this age qualification was not satisfied. All other qualifications appeared to be met based on the information provided, such as earned income, investment income, filing status, and residency requirements. However, since the age requirement was not satisfied, you did not qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit. I do not understand since we fall within the age requirement.
