Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Here's a screwy situation... Since the third stimulus payment can be based on 2019 or 2020 taxes, I have a situation. In 2019 I could claim my daugther as a dependent, so the Federal government deposited money into my account that included $1,400 for her recently because I hadn't filed my 2020 taxes yet. Now I am going through helping my daughter do her 2020 taxes and she IS NO LONGER MY DEPENDENT, and TurboTax is saying that she should have qualified for stimulus money. Well, only because she is no longer my DEPENDENT. If I had filed my 2020 taxes early enough, I wouldn't have received the $1,400 for her. Now TurboTax is asking if she received a stimulus check, and she didn't, but I of course did. Seems like a problem....
