After you file

I was able to get my own answers after contacting the tax advisor line. When the 1st stimulus round of stimulus checks came out you had the option to file with or without filing taxes confirmation. Instead I chose the option to send it to me "rapidly" option (i forgot how it was phrased but something like that)

 

My tax prep did not pick up on this and didn't think about it when filing the 2019 taxes. When filing the tax prep should have did an amendment and filed but instead filed my taxes over and over and over to see if it would push through the system but the system kept rejecting it.

 

I called a free tax line advisor who advised me the below

 

File a amended tax for your prior year taxes (2019) and include the 2nd stimulus 600 as a recovery rebate and it should be okay. The recovery rebate is your missing stimulus payment and it will be paid out alongside your taxes to give you the full refund plus stimulus. I still have not gotten my $1400 stimulus but my 2020 taxes were accepted and being processed. Due to the amendment the 2019 taxes will take around 16+ weeks to correct. Not the best news but at least it is being worked on.

 

I wrote this because I care about YOU yes you reading the comments and feeling frustrated and depressed because you need financial assistance but you cannot get your taxes back. Try a tax advisor line. I called between 6-7 pm EST and was connected within 5 minutes. No hang ups no call backs and the advisor asked to verify my call back number in the event we are disconnected then they would call me back.

 

I just need my flipping money but I guess at least I know it's on it's way.

 

Again to summarize

Contact a tax advisor hotline, they are free and there are tons of them out there. Notify them of your issue and they should be able to walk you through the process or if easier have your tax prep on the line with you and you both call the advisor hotline.

 

I hope everyone gets their money. The world needs healing and small things like this helps.
