Are you asking if your college student can get earned income credit? If you are claiming him as a dependent---no---dependents do not get EIC.

Please clarify what low income credit are you referring to? Is it the Earned Income Tax Credit?

If you're asking about a state credit, identify the state.

General rule: no, dependents and full time students don't qualify for state low income credits. And, frequently child dependents are another requirement.
