Reconciliation on a taxpayers 2020 taxes?! Is that so I can pay off the debt with what would then be my ex landlord and still have a nasty eviction on my record so I won't be able to rent from anyone anymore??? So this whole thing cause struggle for me all year and by the time 2021 rolls around i can file my tax refund while being homeless with a kid and feeling like wow if they had just given me my stimulus instead of keeping it to pay old debts, i wouldn't have an eviction and maybe I would be able to provide for myself and my kid right now...and all the while trying to resolve the debt incurred with my then ex landlord all because of covid19.
I know I'm not alone in this. It just pissed me off that the same protections on our stimulus money from the bush administration werent placed around these stimulus payments as well, which would have been the ideal thing to do considering these payments are for food and rent and utilities, not prior payment arrangements or debt collections or non payments of old bills....yes would have been the smarter thing to do because lots and lots of American taxpayers currently owe debt of some kind.....im betting over half but idk. So to take the food off people's tables (and out of their children's mouths) and in the pockets of debt collectors isnt right. One of my friends got theirs and it is posting as a tax refund....if that what it has been named then yeah tax interceptions are valid and debt collections can come seize it before it ever leaves the irs.....the bush administrations payments posted as stimulus. Taxpayers were provided protections because of that....im sorry, this be not the place to vent this stuff and maybe I'm rambling but this ticks me off alot and im not the only one I am certian.
