EITC

Hello, so I would like to see why the EITC is only giving me a percentage of it and not the full $5,828. I ran the worksheet and read the terms to see if I qualify and I do.

Married filing jointly with 2 children.

We cannot see your return.  If you entered your dependent and the income you earned by working, and your income qualifies you for EIC the software automatically adds it to your refund.  How many dependents did you enter?  What is in box 1 of your W-2?
