You may not claim the Earned Income Credit if you have not lived with the child for over half the year, even if you have supported the child.
If only one of the persons is the child’s parent, the child is treated as the qualifying child of the parent.
If the parents do not file a joint return together but both parents claim the child as a qualifying child, the IRS will treat the child as the qualifying child of the parent with whom the child lived with for the longer period of time during the year. If the child lived with each parent for the same amount of time, the IRS will treat the child as the qualifying child of the parent who had the higher adjusted gross income (AGI) for the year.
If no parent can claim the child as a qualifying child, the child is treated as the qualifying child of the person who had the highest AGI for the year.
If a parent can claim the child as a qualifying child but no parent does claim the child, the child is treated as the qualifying child of the person who had the highest AGI for the year, but only if that person’s AGI is higher than the highest AGI of any of the child’s parents who can claim the child.

Additional Info
We ask that you complete this due diligence questionnaire to ensure you are eligible to claim at least one of several valuable tax credits. While the questions may seem to be a little intrusive, they are questions that we are required to ask under the due diligence requirements of the new tax laws. We will keep your responses and documents on file, in the event the IRS should ever ask for them. Please complete them in as much detail as possible.
Financial Information
Refund Bank Products
You are not required to use a refund bank product for disbursement. You may choose to pay your preparation fees upfront to avoid the costs associated with using a refund bank transfer. These fees are for the refund bank transmission and service bureau. They are not included in your quoted tax preparation fees.
Transmission Fee: $24
Electronic Filing Fee: $25
Bank Fee: $20
Audit Protection
As part of our ongoing commitment to providing comprehensive support, we wanted to inform you that your tax return will automatically be enrolled in Audit Protection. This service offers peace of mind by providing assistance if your return is selected for an audit by the IRS. The cost for Audit Protection is $29.99, which will be added to the total charge for your tax preparation services. Grandfathered plans will not be affected by this add-on. Should you have any questions or prefer not to opt into this service, please don't hesitate to contact us prior to finalizing your return.
Refund Advance Loan Details
Approval rate of 79%. Your refund and loan history is reviewed from previous years. 4 out of 5 of clients are approved.
**Loans over $1000, have an 36% interest fee attached.
The maximum amount for a Refund Advance Loan is $7000. If approved for a Refund Advance Loan greater than $1,000, you will be charged interest. The amount of interest you are charged depends on how many days it takes to repay the advance from your tax refund. In other words — if your tax refund is processed and deposited by the IRS or State quickly, you’ll pay less than if your tax refund takes longer to be released. Interest charges are capped at 60 days. So, the charges to you will stop at 60 days if your refund is delayed.
**DISCLAIMER: DESPITE APPROVAL ODDS, REFUND ADVANCES ARE NOT GUARANTEED. THE REFUND BANK HAS THE OPTION TO APPROVE THE AMOUNT REQUESTED, APPROVE THE APPLICATION FOR A LESSER AMOUNT, OR DENY THE APPLICATION**
Bank Account Information
Please ensure that your bank information is correct. Once transmitted, your banking information can't be changed by your tax preparer or the refund bank. Any returned payment due to incorrect bank information, will be issued as a paper check, and result in a delay of your refund being disbursed.
