Using 2019 Earned income for 2020 credits

Can I use 2019 earned income for the 2020 Additional Child Tax Credit and then use 2020 earned income for the 2020 Earned Income Credit?

Yes, you can choose to use your 2019 Adjusted Gross income for one or both or neither of the Additional Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Credit.
