Have a client who all income is from business. They are way under the EIC limit on line 38, however when I do the worksheet in TTB tab 16, it shows earned income is above the limit and no credit is available. Line 38 is well under the EIC limit due to adjustments to income for SE Health, SE paid and IRA deductions. Is this right?
