After you file

Just to update, so I have a Tax Advocate worker. I've had one since roughly Feb. I had went online and remember when it was big in the news how the IRS was allowing the recovery rebate credits on tax returns to be offset for gov & private debt, even tho the stimulus checks had specifically been exempt? Well back then I had just filed my tax return, and the only thing on it was the 1800 for my 2 missing stimulus payments from last year. So I had reached out to the Taxpayer Advocate Services trying to find out if there was anything to be done bc I owe the irs from 2014, they ALWAYS take my returns, so I was worried I wouldn't even get the rebate. 

Well this lady calls my phone one eve while I'm in the grocery store and shes from the Taxpayer advocate dept, has my tax file pulled up and all, and she informs me that I dont have to worry about them taking my rebate because I am.not actually eligible for that, due to the fact that the IRS did actually attempt to send both of my payments out, they just sent them to the wrong place and then the wrong bank account but that the rebate is only for peoples whose payments were never sent at all or couldnt be delivered. She opened me a case. Once again I'm supposedly waiting on fraud, like they told me back in Sept of 2020 when I first called on my 1200 check. This time she has me print out two forms 3911 I think, to report lost or stolen payment.  And fax them in to her.

So the other day after hours of calls and messages I finslly got a callback from her. And she got my faxes. In march. And nope nothings changed. She says she will add the 1400 check into her file and shes forwarding all if them to another dept. 

Then calls back and says well she can only fwd the two from last year as the IRS site still lists this last 1400 AS SCHEDULED TO BE SENT AS A PAPER CHECK (even tho it says direct deposit online) but even she doesnt see any actual payment date.  But I guess at least it still says they plan to send it? 

I'm just hopelessly depressed. I really really need the money to rent a room, pay a court fine and get s cheap vehicle so I can get back to work. Im.literally homeless right now bc of all these missed checks.
