Why did I not receive earned income credit

You qualify for the EITC if: 

  • you have earned income and your adjusted gross income is within certain limits; AND 
  • you meet certain basic rules (investment income limits, age, etc); AND 
  • you either: 

It's hard to say why you didn't receive the earned income credit without knowing more about your specific situation. 

 

You can use the EITC Assistant to find out your filing status, your child’s status as a qualifying child, your eligibility for the credit, and estimate the amount of the credit you may get.
