I recieved my stimulus pay for myself but I have 4 children and they didn't not receive anything at all,and all my info was inputted on the system by TT adding my dependents. I've tried looking for info on why this happened to me. I believe it happened to alot of people as well. What should I do?

    Its all the way on the right and its on child tax credit at the end of each name


    @jeryluv - then the IRS made the error....

     

    IRS FAQ:

     

     a letter about the Payment will be mailed to each recipient’s last known address within 15 days after the Payment is made. The letter will provide information on how the Payment was made and how to report any failure to receive the Payment.

    first, let's review your tax return,

     

    look where your children are listed and then WAY OVER to the right.... where are the checkmarks? under "child care credit" or "other dependent tax credit'

     

    if child care credit, then it's an IRS error

    if under 'other dependent tax credit', that is why you didn't get the credit.

     

    post back which it is and we can go from there.  I assume all children are under 17 years old??
