The purpose of this is to help low income people because unemployment income does not count as earned income for the EITC and there is a minimum amount of income needed to qualify.

Again, you CANNOT use your 2019 earned income to calculate your 2020 earned income tax CREDIT if you earned LESS money in 2019.
