"I work with taxes all day, look up advanced EIC on the irs.gov site."

Again, please post your evidence that this is an ongoing problem. I'm willing to consider it.

"I notice you don’t mention any of the other things, like what if they file before you do?"

There are a million and one what ifs. You seem to be referring to a known problem so please post your evidence so I can look at it.

Q3. How do I get Advance EITC payments?

A3. See if you qualify for Advance EITC payments by completing the five questions on the back of Form W-5, Earned Income Credit Advance Payment Certificate, available here or through your employer.

If you qualify, complete the bottom part of the Form W-5 and give it to your employer. Then, based on your income, your employer adds additional money to your take-home pay in each paycheck.
