Hi everyone,

I have some client use PYEI in tax 2020. Some got the refund exactly what we calculate but some got the refund with EITC just base on 2020 earned income. IRS told them that they will send out explanation letter later for them. All of the them are return client so I am sure that I use the exactly 2019 earned income to apply for PYEI. 

Is there anyone have the same problem like me?

Best,

Yes! Earned income in 2019 higher then 2020 and they can get more refund when use PYEI.

Thank you Lisa!

Were all of the 'changed' one filed early in the season?  ProSeries wasn't properly showing that you used Prior Year Earned Income for a while, so maybe that is what the problem is?
