 I came to United States on May 27 2019 as a first time green card holder . On July 11 of the same year  the rest of my family joined me here in USA.

since then we never traveled back.

under the the green card test am I allowed to claim the earned income tax credit for 2019?

my earned income until December 31, 2019 is $18,000.

@Mahmoudelnahtawy 

You are posting in an old already-answered thread from last year, so most people might not see it.  I'll see if I can attract someone to this thread who might be familiar with foreign filing situations.

@pk Are you able to assist here when you are next in the forum?   Thanks!

@ Mahmoudelnahtawy You may have missed the 180 days rule test. You said your family joined you on July 11, 2019. Based on that fact, you may not qualify to file for EIC. 

[pk]

@Mahmoudelnahtawy ,  the above answer  needs a little bit more --- you may be eligible for EITC ( assuming you are filing jointly with your spouse  and that all of you have  SSN .  See the following  page at www.irs.gov--->

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p5334.pdf

 The limitation would be regarding your qualifying child ( he/she  would not have been in the USA, in your home for at least six months.  As suggested , however , if you have more on this , please start a new thread ( this is a very old thread ).

I also need information, about whether or not I'll receive stimulus. I do not qualify as a dependent because I am 24, not disabled, and make more than $4500 yearly but I mistaken filed on my 2019 that I can be claimed as a dependent. Legally, I'm not a qualifying dependent, should I still expect one?

[CatinaT1]

You will need to amend your return to change where you noted you could be claimed as a dependent.
