If you do not have children to claim, you are too young for EIC. Without children you must be between 25 and 65 to claim it. By then your income should be too high.

This turned out to be a very interesting question. I tried to pull up the link you showed but could not get it to work. I did however pull up a Turbo Tax link shown below. In their “Do I Qualify” section, there is nothing about age limitations. Based on this guideline, you qualify since you say you meet all other tests.
UPDATE: Just found this IRS link for you shown below. It does confirm that, if you are without a child, you must be between the ages of 25 and 65. Wish I could have found something better but “thems the rules”. Good luck.
