Colorado EITC help

I believe I qualify for the Colorado Earned Income Tax Credit. BUT, TurboTax is saying I don't qualify, without any explanation. Per the state.gov website,"

Additionally, beginning with tax year 2022, resident individuals under age 25 who do not have a qualifying child and who do not qualify for the federal EITC may be able to claim the Colorado EITC. To qualify for the Colorado EITC, these resident individuals must have a work-eligible social security number and must be either:

  • Age 24 at the end of the tax year if they are a specified student; or
  • Age 19-24 at the end of the tax year if they are not a specified student; or
  • Age 18-24 at the end of the tax year if they are a qualified former foster youth or qualified homeless youth."

According to this, I should qualify, as I'm between the ages of 19-24 and not a specified student (yet I'm a senior about to graduate with Bachelor of Science), I have a work-valid SSN and made less than $20,000. Any assistance is highly appreciated. I am considering manually adding the state form 0104TN onto my taxes.

Are you claimed as a dependent on someone elses return?  If you are claimed as a dependent this will disqualify you from the EITC.  See the link below for a list of requirements provided by Colorado:
