Question

I have 2 returns that are detecting EIC and I did not check anything that would suggest there are dependents. I tried deleting that particular form but its not bulging.

You can get EITC without any dependents.

Good answer - I just assumed they knew that and it was a ghost dependent glitch

Try deleting the dependent information lines in the Federal Information worksheet - see if that makes the ghost EIC dependents go away

Your idea is completely possible as well....the post was a bit light on the details.

I have 2 returns that are clear cut. Filing status is single. Only info I put in was there W2 info and the basic info that’s required. When I started the review I received about 9 errors all from form 8867. I went back through the return to ensure I did t check any boxes pertaining to that form. I checked the filing status just to ensure it was single. All checked out but the return is still requiring I fill that particular form out. 

Hope this is enough detail as to the issue im having. This is the first year I’ve used ProSeries software. I used ProConnect last year and didn’t have any of these issues.

EIC amounts and ranges have changed for 2021 only. Check their income level.
