EIC is federal, and the rules are the same across all states, and depend on earned income and number of children. If you have two or more eligible dependent children, you can get something if your earned income is a little over $38,000 for the year or less.
With one child, the limit is a little over $36,000. With no children, it's $14,120.

Earned income credit is generally claimed by couples who have minor children.
