I would be about $3k over. I have no CDs I can break and no further loss positions beyond the ~$1k I could generate.

By liquidating the fund, I can better position myself for future years, as you suggested. The amount of the subsidy is growing, so assuring myself of being able to take it next year and in 2021 (and beyond) is very valuable.
