Filing MFJ with 2 dependents

                                                                      Original with full                          Pro Series calculation

                                                                              unemployment                       with exclusion amount          

      AGI                                                                  $56,026                                    $45,826

     Tax                                                                        $.00                                         $.00

     EIC                                                                        $.00                                        $1581

                                                                          AGI was over the limit

  Unemployment                                                    $17,940                                         $7,740

   Sch EIC line 9                                                not calculated due to AGI               $45,826

                                                                                                                         according to IRS it should

                                                                                                                                 have been $56,026

IRS denied the EIC of $1581 saying the Unemployment exclusion could not be used in determing EIC.

IRS did refund $1236.03 which was associated with the $10,200  exclusion plus interest.

I still feel that ProSeries calculation is incorrect.  I am sure this happened to others in similiar situation.

The return was not locked.  Didn't even know you could do that.
