4 interview tips 2 EIC with a Qualifying Child Probe/Action: Ask the taxpayer: Does your qualifying child have an SSN that allows him or her to work? Note: Answer NO only if the child s social security card says NOT VALID FOR EMPLOYMENT and his or her SSN was obtained to get a federally funded benefit. Is the child your son, daughter, child, adopted child, or eligible foster child, brother, sister, half brother, half sister, brother, sister, or a descendant of any of them? If YES, go to Step 2. If NO, STOP. You cannot claim the EIC on the basis of this qualifying child. If YES, go to Step 3. If NO, STOP. This child is not your qualifying child. Go to interview tips for EIC without a Qualifying Child. 3 4 Was the child any of the following at the end of the tax year: Under age 9 and younger than the taxpayer (or spouse, if filing jointly) Under age 24 and a full-time student and younger than the taxpayer (or spouse, if filing jointly), or Any age and permanently and totally disabled? Did the child file a joint return for the year? Note: Answer NO if the child and his or her spouse filed a joint return only as a claim for a refund. If YES, go to Step 4. If NO, STOP. This child is not your qualifying child. Go to interview tips for EIC without a Qualifying Child. If NO, go to Step 5. If YES, STOP. This child is not your qualifying child (failed the joint return test). Go to interview tips for EIC without a Qualifying Child. 5 6 Did the child live with you in the United States for more than half (83 days for 204) of the tax year? Note: Active duty military personnel stationed outside the United States are considered to live in the United States for this purpose. Is the child a qualifying child of another person? Note: There may be a case when a qualifying child cannot be claimed by anyone. Example: The only parent that the child lives with does not work nor files a tax return and another adult cannot meet the general eligibility rules. In this example no one qualifies to claim this child as a qualifying child for EIC. If YES, go to Step 6. If NO, STOP. This child is not your qualifying child. Go to interview tips for EIC without a Qualifying Child. If YES, explain to the taxpayer what happens when more than one person claims the EIC using the same child (Qualifying Child of More than One Person rule). If the taxpayer chooses to claim the credit with this child, compute the EIC using the appropriate EIC worksheets. If NO, compute the EIC using the appropriate EIC worksheet. If your child was married at the end of the year, he or she does not meet the joint return test unless you can claim the child s exemption or you cannot claim the child s exemption because you gave that right to the child s other parent. I-4
5 interview tips EIC Without a Qualifying Child Probe/Action: Ask the taxpayer: Can you (or your spouse, if filing jointly) be claimed as a dependent by another person? If NO, go to Step 2. If YES, STOP. You cannot claim the EIC. 2 3 Were you (or your spouse, if filing jointly) at least 25 but under age 65 on December 3 of the tax year? Taxpayers born on January st are considered to be of age as of December 3st. Taxpayers reaching the age of 65 on January st are still considered 64 as of December 3st. Did you (and your spouse, if filing jointly) live in the United States for more than half (at least 83 days) of the tax year? More than 83 days in a leap year. If NO, STOP. You cannot claim the EIC. If YES, go to Step 3. If NO, STOP. You cannot claim the EIC. If YES, compute EIC using the appropriate EIC worksheet. Note: If you cannot claim the EIC because your qualifying child is treated under the tiebreaker rules as the qualifying child of another person for 204, you may be able to take the EIC using a different qualifying child, but you cannot take the EIC using the rules for people who do not have a qualifying child. TIP Qualifying Child of More than One Person If the child meets the conditions to be the qualifying child of more than one person, only one person can claim the child. The following rules apply: If only one of the persons is the child s parent, the child is treated as the qualifying child of the parent. If the parents do not file a joint return together but both parents claim the child as a qualifying child, the IRS will treat the child as the qualifying child of the parent with whom the child lived for the longer period of time in 204. If the child lived with each parent for the same amount of time, the IRS will treat the child as the qualifying child of the parent who had the higher adjusted gross income (AGI) for 204. If no parent can claim the child as a qualifying child, the child is treated as the qualifying child of the person who had the highest AGI for 204. If a parent can claim the child as a qualifying child but no parent does so claim the child, the child is treated as the qualifying child of the person who had the highest AGI for 204, but only if that person s AGI is higher than the highest AGI of any of the child s parents who can claim the child.

7 Schedule EIC Worksheet COMPLETE ONLY THOSE QUESTIONS IN RED Hint: TaxWise will automatically compute EIC with and without non-taxable combat pay and choose the method that is best for the taxpayer. Hint: Enter income earned while an inmate in a penal institution (including work release) on the TaxWise EIC Worksheet in the section titled Figure your Credit. TaxWise will subtract this amount from other earned income. Caution: Read this question carefully Note : If the taxpayer has had their EIC previously denied, you will need to complete Form Note 2: As with any form, read and answer the questions carefully. Make sure there are no red check marks on Schedule EIC or the Schedule EIC worksheet. I-7
