Where do I claim my VA disability pay.

The non filers section requires two steps to get your stimulus check one: your information and two: a simple return. I think I've got it though, thanks

So just because I am 100% disabled with the VA, I can't get the Earned income credit or the Child Tax credit? I have four kids, and not getting this credit does not make any sense to me. The disability should count as earned income because I earned these disabilities serving this country.

@mrchrisayers Sorry---the earned income credit and the child tax credit are only available to filers who had income from working.  Congress wrote the tax law that way.   For 2021 the child tax credit was treated differently, but it has changed for 2022 returns.  If you did not have income from working  in 2022 you cannot get EIC or CTC.  Sorry.
