If you are eligible for Earned Income Credit, or EIC, it is calculated automatically in the program as you enter your tax information.
How does the Earned Income Credit help?
The earned income tax credit can be a great benefit for workers with low incomes. This tax break returns to qualified individuals a portion of the taxes they paid. It even can produce a tax refund for eligible filers who had no tax liability.
What is the amount of my Earned Income Credit?
You can find the amount of Earned Income Credit received within the "Summary" page. Once within the "Summary" page, please click "Payments". You will see "Earned Income Credit" and the amount received to the right.
