Question

Did i receive the earned income credit for the 2018 tax return? i just filed and i think i may have read the question wrong that asks if i have lived in the u.s.for 6 mth

I think I may have answered no instead if yes to this question.  It may affect my tax return if i qualified and didnt receive it.  Is there anyway we can check into that and have it corrected before the forms filing is completed?  I have never lived outside the U.S. I have never even left the U.S.

Thanks in advance.

You need to print the return and look at it.  The EIC would show in line 17a of the Form 1040.

If it is not there, you should file a Amended return after the original return is processed.
