Workers are eligible for the EITC when they earn an annual income that is less than a specified amount. This is possible even if they have no tax liability and no money was withheld from their paychecks for taxes. In order to qualify for the EITC, a taxpayer must have a Social Security Number and an annual income and/or investment income that falls below a certain level. Contact the IRS, a tax preparer, or a VITA representative to obtain the current income level requirements. 19
