Earned income tax credit

It seems my daughter should be allowed the $632.00 earned income credit and the program is not applying this.  Her income is $8434 and $49 for earned income (1099-INT) with no children. The earned income table shows she should be allowed $632.  However, the program is stating she is not. We have attempted to use the tax slayer program and it is showing the $632 as credit.

You will want to go through the Earned Income Credits questions carefully- if you answer a question incorrectly, TurboTax will not apply the credit.

How old is she?  Has to be over 25 if she has no children.  Is she your dependent?
