Thanks for the correction. In order to claim it, you should use 1040 or 
1040A which includes EIC schedule. 1040EZ does not have EIC schedule.

$1,511 is for two or more children. Say, if you have ten kids, the amount
is still $1,511. You can have it added to your paycheck.

You can even have rental credits.

I believe it is not. If it is, so what? There are lots of benefits
designated for low-income families, no matter if they are Citizens 
or PRs. If you qualify, take it. You will pay back much more when
you graduate and find a job.

Also instead of being subject to the in-state-status when we pay the 
tuition, we can also apply for the Federal Assistantship, loans, grants
for our study. Loans have no interest, grants are give away, and you do 
not have to pay back. They are not considered as PUBLIC ASSISTANT. Just
incentives for you to stay in school.

Cheers!
