Why am I not receiving the full EIC?

EIC is based on how much you earned from working.   Not everyone gets the "full amount."

Why am I not receiving the full EIC?

The amount of Earned Income Credit (EIC) depends on your earned income and your total income, as well as how many qualifying dependents you have. 

 

The amount you receive is based on the EIC tables published each year. Follow this link to see this year's table.
