When I filed my taxes (TurboTax), there was a page which - as with last year - asked a question as to whether I got my 'stimulus' check. I do not recall that there was any other option (yes or no).
I did not get a stimulus during the virus.
Last year it automatically credited my taxes. No notice from IRS.
This year it did the same (automatically credited my taxes on my answer to the question).
Recently I got a notice of tax due, reversing the credit.
Now I owe >$1400.00, plus interest & penalties.
That's the truth. I tried calling about a problem a few weeks ago. After navigating through 3 or 4 different menus an announcement finally came on saying they could not take my call today and try calling another day.
Yes, I reached that FU dead end many many times. If you’re not calling to give them money, it is IMPOSSIBLE to figure out how to get actual help.
I had my son go through all his deposits as I helped him file his return to verify that he didn’t get any $1400 deposits or anything from Treasury or IRS other than 2020 tax refund.
My daughter had a $1400 direct deposit in 2021, my son hadn’t.
