Income and family size determine if you qualify and the amount of the EITC.

Hey thanks for the reply, but that doesn’t really answer my question. I’ve done my research and know what EIC is, and I also know that I qualify based on my last years income. My question is that I wasn’t aware of it last year so I didn’t claim it last year - how can I claim that missing credit for this year (tho I don’t qualify this year).
In order to claim a missed credit on a prior year return you must amend that prior year return. You have up to three years after the filing deadline to claim a refund.
