Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If the IRS made an adjustment to your refund then you will get an explanation statement. 

 

If you claimed the Recovery Rebate Credit (line 30 of Form 1040) the IRS might made an adjustment because they show it as received in their records. 

 

If you received Notice 1444 in the mail but have not received your payment as mentioned in the notice, then you need to request a trace to be able to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2020 tax return. Please see How do I request a payment trace to track my first or second Economic Impact Payments?

 

Also, you can call 1-800-304-3107 to find out if you had an offset that affected your tax refund. Please see Treasury Offset Program  for additional information.
