EIC

ProSeries is saying an 80 year old with non-taxed social security and $1700 in earned income qualifies for EIC.

 

I had to check the box in the info worksheet that says "Taxpayer has been notified by IRS that EIC cannot be claimed in 2021".    Should I have had to do this or am I missing something?

Youre missing something.   

They took away the EITC age cap, senior citizens with low earned income qualify now.

So appreciate your quick replies.  

When I did the worksheet on the IRS.gov/EIC, it said because of Adjusted Gross Income limit, he didn't qualify for EIC????

 

W-2     $1726

Pensions    $9036

SS    $21678

"I had to check the box in the info worksheet"

Is that true? Or, you are trying to bypass it? I would uncheck that, if it doesn't apply.
