Say I am US citizen, single and I have valid SSN. My income is around $15,000, it seems that I can claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). My question is that whether the software includes the function already? Or it doesn't have it, I have to find another way to claim it?

    Yes, the software already includes it. However, in order to claim EITC without any dependents, you must be at least age 25 (but less than 65) on 12/31/2020.  See Line 27 here:
