How do I claim earned income credit?

[Critter-3]

If you are qualified for the credit it will be added to your return automatically ... simply follow the program interview screens in the deductions & credits section.

If you are eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit the TurboTax program will calculate the credit and enter it on our federal tax return.

After you have entered all of your income  and deductions from all sources you can view the Form 1040 Line 27 for the tax credit.

You can view your Form 1040 at any time using the online editions. Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.
