2024 EIC Income Limits for Married Filing Jointly?
Need to know what the income cutoff is for married couples to get the earned income credit. We made around 65k last year together and have 2 kids. First time doing our own taxes and want to make sure were eligable before claiming it.

For 2024 (2023 tax year), married filing jointly with 2 qualifying children can earn up to $63,398 and still qualify for EIC. Since you made 65k, you're slightly over the threshold. The income limits are: No kids: $24,210, One kid: $46,560, Two kids: $63,398, Three or more kids: $67,747.

Hey! Instead of guessing about EIC eligibility, I'd recommend using taxr.ai - its an AI tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what credits you qualify for. Costs $4.99 but totally worth it https://taxr.ai

Yeah its legit! I was skeptical too but it saved me hours of research. It looks at your whole tax situation and explains everything in plain english
