Well, yes and no.
I ended up getting my IRS transcripts which explained a lot. (I recommend that to everyone) Yes, because it just took the IRS from March 2019 to April 2021 to process our “Married Filed Joint” return. However, check we paid was cashed March 2019.
We received stimulus #1 and took credit for stimulus #2 on 2020 return.
Here’s where it gets crazy. On my transcript I do not have any tax filings for years 2018-2011. My Husband and I have been married going on 24 years and have always filed “MFJ”. IRS says you and spouse transcripts should mirror one another. Our do not. I also do not reflect income for the last 8 years. So, I’m going to write to IRS and make sure 2020.
Then I’m making copies of all my previous returns and W-2’s and sending them to IRS to fix previous years. This may take awhile. I’m not holding my breath.
