Hello,
I need help regarding a doubt I have wrt stimulus payment.
My spouse has filed 2019 return as Married filing separate and got the refund to bank ac. I have not yet filed my 2019 tax return. Now I am planning to file amended tax return 1040X as Married filing jointly to get about 2300$ stimulus check and also more refund. My question is:
1. I am not eligible for the covid check based on my 2018 income and my spouse will get 1200$ based on her 2019 tax return. Can I claim for higher stimulus payment of 2300$ later on based on our amended MFJ tax return.
2. Is it possible to e-file 1040 MFJ instead of mailing the amended tax return to get higher stimulus payment on Apr 15.
I would appreciate your input. Thanks for your time.
