The IRS notes an Earned Income Credit increases to as high as 400 for workers with total adjusted gross income under 8000 while sharing home costs for a dependent under 19 or a disabled dependent 19 or older. Eligibility requires filing Form 1040 or 1040A and meeting specific income rules, with credits reducing as income rises beyond 4000.
