Does my daughter allow me to claim EIC tax credit if she was born in December of 2018?

Yes, a child born in December is considered as having lived with you the whole year and would count as your qualifying child for the Earned Income Tax credit. 

Make sure that in the My Info section of TurboTax, you indicate that she has lived with you the whole year.
