The IRS changed the amount of my refund because of the recovery rebate credit What is the recover rebate recovery. What is that. I am not fighting this just want to know Thanks
The 3rd stimulus payment of $1,400 per person on a 2020 tax return was sent out by the IRS during the March - May 2021 timeframe. You were asked in the TurboTax program if you received this stimulus payment. If you indicate No then the payment was entered on your federal tax return Form 1040 Line 30 as a Recovery Rebate Credit.
If the IRS removed that credit from your tax return is because the IRS has records which show that the 3rd stimulus payment was sent to you.
Go to this IRS website for your tax account to see if the 3rd stimulus payment is entered - https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account
If you are Married Filing Jointly also check your spouse's tax account.
If you checked your bank account in the March - May 2021 timeframe and there is not a EIP3 payment from the IRS then go to this IRS website for how to start a trace on the payment - https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/questions-and-answers-about-the-third-economic-impact-payment-topic-j-p...
