@ELeone Can you please post the link to the IRS site where it says that you have to claim it on taxes in 2021 if you didn't receive it? This wouldn't make any sense because anyone who files injured spouse would end up losing their stimulus once again when it gets intercepted. Our stimulus payments have already been divided in half, so this wouldn't be a fair resolution to the issue.
I personally have been running in circles with this. I have a tax advocate but she hasn't been able to do much for me unfortunately. I spoke to the IRS last week and they told me they didn't see my payment on their end and that child support must have it. I spoke to child support and they said that they do NOT have it, that they only received my husband's half, amounting in $1950. My $1950 is apparently on a hold. I then spoke to child support again and was told that the Department of Health & Human Services is holding all of these checks as they try to come to an agreement with the Bureau of Fiscal the Service and the IRS as to how these should be dispersed - whether they should be sent to the IRS to send out or sent to child support to disperse.
The question is WHEN will they make a decision as to releasing our checks to us. ;sigh;
