Line 1
Complete Step 1 through Step 5 in the instructions for Line 18a - Earned Income Credit of federal Form 1040 prior to completing the appropri-
ate EIC Worksheet. When completing the federal EIC Worksheet, disregard the adjusted gross income limitations for Step 1 and Step 4 and the
earned income limitation for Step 5. Complete Step 4 using between ages 21 and under age 65 for the age requirements.
If you lived in a qualied disaster area and were allowed to use your 2018 earned income to determine your federal Earned Income Tax Credit,
you must use your 2019 earned income to determine line 1.
Line 6 — Part-year residents
If you are a part-year resident, you will determine your credit using your percentage of income taxable to Minnesota.
If your gross income is less than $12,200, you should have entered zero on line 22 of Schedule M1NR, Nonresidents/Part-Year Residents.
To determine this credit, fully complete Schedule M1NR (do not skip lines 12-21) to determine what the amounts would have been, and then
complete the Worksheet for Line 6.
