Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Sir or Madam:

 

      Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.  It was my understanding that the law was changed under the Cares Act to allow adult dependents to receive the stimulus payments.  This is one of the reasons for the Recovery Rebate Credit, to allow disabled adult dependents to receive the stimulus, correct?  In this scenario I can keep my stimulus and my brother can receive the EIC he has been receiving for me for years .  .    It seems counterintuitive and counterproductive that the law would force the return of the previously received stimulus because  I am declaring that I am not claiming myself on my own return.  Also, is not the IRS allowing for 2019/2020 Amended returns to be filed electronically  for the first time?  I realize that in the past this was a paper only action. 

     Please give these points some thought as I depend upon Turbo Tax Chat to be knowledgeable and correct.  

 

      Again, 

 

      Thank you
