Did i get my earned income tax credit?what about the child tax credit for my daughter shes still in school fulltime,she graduates this year didnt i qualify?

You lose the child tax credit in the year that a child turns 17. When you enter your dependents and your income into your tax return, TT automatically calculates the child tax credit, additional child tax credit, and includes EIC if you qualify for it. So if you qualified for EIC it is already showing in your refund.

The amount of EIC you are receiving can be seen on your tax return:

1040EZ on line 8a

on 1040A line 42a

on 1040 line 66a
