Follow the steps to correctly fill out the 2010 Fillable Schedule EIC Form

1. Click the ‘Get Form’ button to obtain the form and launch it in your preferred editor.
2. Begin filling in your social security number in the designated field at the top of the form. Ensure that this number matches the information on your tax return.
3. Input your name as shown on your tax return. This should correspond with the details you have provided on your Form 1040A or Form 1040.
4. You need to provide qualifying child information. Start with Child 1 by entering their first and last name. Ensure the name matches their social security card.
5. Next, enter Child 1's social security number (SSN). If the child was born and died in 2010 and does not have an SSN, indicate this by entering 'Died' and plan to attach relevant documents.
6. List the year of birth for Child 1. If they were born after 1991 and were younger than you at the end of 2010, you can skip the following two questions about age and disability.
7. For Child 1, indicate their relationship to you (e.g., son, daughter, etc.) and state the number of months they lived with you in the United States during 2010. This should not exceed 12 months.
8. Repeat steps 4 through 7 for Child 2 and Child 3. If you have more than three qualifying children, you only need to list three to maximize your credit.
9. Review all information for accuracy to avoid delays in processing. Ensure that each child’s name and SSN agree with their social security documents.
10. Once you have filled out all required sections, you can save your changes, download the completed form, print it, or share it as needed.
