Tax Year Prior to 2020: Do I earn Income Tax Credit

[Anthonyjaz18]

Hello

I am 70 years old “single” retiree, my income comes from $15K Social Security Paycheck Plus $5K in pension, I do NOT have any Dependents. will I qualify for “Earned Income Tax Credit” (EITC or EIC) ?


Thanks

Unfortunately, you do not qualify because you are over 65 years old.  Please see the following FAQ for the criteria to claim the Earned Income Credit (EIC or EITC).
