Got some help from this board. So thought I'd share this with others. I
actually asked the question here but got no answer. It only applies to
resident alien filers still entitled to the tax treaty benefit.
I had this uncertainty about my EIC eligibility caused by the $5000 tax treaty
benefit. My W-2 form (box 1) doesn't include this $5000, which makes my
income fall in the EIC eligibility range. Yet if I add $5000 back to W-2
figure, it's over the threshold and disqualifies me for EIC. I
