There are multiple reasons for your possible refund. The IRS is doing refunds and stimulus checks in stages depending on your specific situation. You could be one of those getting a second amount later. You could also have owed the IRS or others and some of your money was taken as an offset. You may made a mistake with a typo or regarding your stimulus.
If you are among the many in the two part series, it is just a waiting game. If there was an offset or mistake, you will receive a letter with more information.
Each return must be cross checked for the normal and now with the new laws:
- stimulus- is it correct, pay missing amounts, do they need to be added for the new stimulus
- unemployment - is it on there, was it filed with the $10,200 subtraction, does it need to be adjusted
- premium tax credit - is it on there, is there an amount due, adjust the return
- EIC - is it on, were they banned, is there a record of release to claim?
- Child credit -anybody else claim, how old are kids, what is allowed
- and so on for still more, it is a long process this year to check each return for so many things.
The IRS is also processing returns mailed in last year and handling the current stimulus. They have scheduled this summer to adjust unemployment on this year's returns.
The more items on your return, the more complicated the processing, becoming a two part refund.
They paid what was more easily verified is the most likely reason.
