After you file
The same happened to me. I spent 4 hours on the phone with 3 different people. One didn’t know. The other two told me that my child is disqualified because he wasn’t listed on my 2019 tax return. The law is written to say the eligibility for the recovery rebate credit is based on your 2020 tax return. They are supposed to calculate the first to payments you should have received based on 2020, then subtract what you already received and refund you the remaining which would be $1100. They told me that they have not heard that and I am wrong, I even referred them to the irs website where it states how to get your money for a child born in 2020, who is eligible, etc. I was told over and over that no baby born in 2020 would qualify. This is a lie. It was very frustrating. I’m not sure what else to do. Maybe if I call everyday eventually I’ll get someone that will help.
