I filed last month (February) and a couple weeks ago now. The irs is stating that they changed my refund about to $0.00 because something in the paperwork wasn’t right but yet won’t let me fix the problem! I haven’t even received any letter or letters as to why or even as to why I can’t change anything to fix the problem! #Overwhelmed

    The IRS will send a letter to the address on the return stating what they have done and why. Once you receive the letter, you will be able to form a game plan. We are here to help! Once  the letter is received, please see I received a letter from the IRS and the IRS website for notices, click here. While frustrating, things can be fixed. Your replies need to be prompt and accurate so be ready for action once you get the letter.

    How much was your refund?

     

    The 2 most common reasons this year is you entered the wrong amount on line 30 for the Recovery Rebate Credit (3rd Stimulus payment) or line 28 for the Child Tax Credit.  Those lines are just if you didn't already get the full amount or qualify for more.  The IRS knows what they already sent you.  

     

    A lot of people answered the questions wrong and tried to claim the credits again.  Double check your bank statements to see what the IRS sent you during the year for the 3rd Stimulus payment.
