Section 32 of the Internal Revenue
Code allows taxpayers an earned income credit (EIC) for each of
their qualifying children. Section 32(k), as enacted by section
1085(a)(1) of Public Law 105-34, disallows the EIC for a statutory
period if the taxpayer improperly claimed it in a prior year. Form
8862 helps taxpayers reestablish their eligibility to claim the
EIC.
