Question

Where in my 2019 tax return can I find the EITC? Is that the overall number in line 1 of worksheet B?

My report goes from child tax credit and credit for other dependents worksheet to Worksheet A 2019 EIC-Line 18a but the entire thing is blank BUT Worksheet B has parts 1, 3,4, 5, 6, and 7 are all filled in.

If you are looking for your earned income from 2019 in order to use that amount on your 2021 return for the earned income credit, it is on line 6a of your 2019 Form 8812 if you claimed the additional child tax credit in 2019.

If Form 8812 is not attached to your 2019 tax return and you did not use Worksheet 1, it is because you had self-employment income in 2019. To calculate your earned income in 2019, it would be the amount on Schedule 1 Line 3 - Schedule 1 Line 14 + Form 1040 Line 1.

If you want to know the earned income tax credit from 2019, it is on Line 18a of Form 1040.
