Research direction

Start with the TAXSIM output at http://taxsim.nber.org/out2psl/1161 and compare the PolicyEngine and TA results for the EIC. Check line 5 of Form 3514 to understand the expected AGI phaseout behavior. Done means PolicyEngine applies the same phaseout behavior as TA for this case.
