Will I still receive something since the error was not my fault. Nor do I exceed the 7500$
That is why I asked about $7500---because you mentioned it yourself. It sounds like you received the "generic" letter from the IRS that was sent to people who made mistakes with the recovery rebate credit. You tried to get the $1400 credit on your tax return, and the IRS records indicate that you already received it. And....lots of people managed to forget they received the $1400---as amazing as that seems. There were lots of mistakes made by people who received those checks and then said on their tax returns that they did not receive it. Do not depend completely on your memory. Check you bank account for deposits made between March 2021 and May 2021. And check your online account with the IRS to see what it says about sending that $1400. If the IRS shows they sent you $1400 and you really did not receive it, then you can have it traced.
Try checking your online account with the IRS (and if you filed a joint return—check for BOTH of you)

If you need to trace a payment that the IRS says has been issued to you, mail or fax a completed IRS Form 3911, Taxpayer Statement Regarding Refund.
