Why when filed said I didn't qualify for EIC but then I get a letter from the IRS asking why I didn't claim it and stated I may be eligible for more of a refund?

Why did it say you did not qualify?

How much earned income did you have and how much unearned income did you have?

I just went by what turbo said. The letter stated I may be eligible for up to a little over $6000 back.

My earned income was 23,377

My taxes do not show unearned income.

To get over $6,000, you would have to be married filing a joint return and have 3 kids.

For your income level, the credit for single with no kids is $0, 1 kid is $3,010 and it goes up to $6,728 for married filing jointly with 3 kids.

When you use TurboTax, it is best to walk through all sections and answer all questions. This will help you get all the credits you are eligible for.
