After you file
It was probably one of the stimulus credits. It was like something like over 75% of tax preparers like TurboTax included messed up and put the wrong amount in the area where it said that you got your stimulus checks or you didn't get your stimulus checks So they had to go through each individual return everyone's returns got sent to the ERS department which is a real department The only people tell you it's not real It's a computer department It's not an actual department where there's people that you can talk to everything is computer automated so they go through each and into a visual every return and make sure that you did get the credits or you didn't get the credits That's what the holdup was in the beginning You're thinking millions of people. Who got stimulus checks whose tax returns said they didn't or said they didn't get this one or didn't get that one or they did get them all and they said they didn't get them all cuz they thought they could double dip or they had access filing for each kid people filing for other kids people filing unemployment and their kids' names like things are really messed up this year and not to mention a big huge part of the unemployment was all fraud so all them people have to pay that money back so they're going through every individual return like looking at every single thing. And then people were told not to file amended returns to get the unemployment tax credit unemployment tax credit was $10,200 that was untaxable so they owe us back at least $1,200 could be more It could increase your income and make you eligible for other things like earn income credit or make your child tax credit higher things like that and certain states charge unemployment taxes I live in the state where they don't so I didn't have to worry about that but I still haven't gotten my unemployment tax credit back and I'm married filing joint with two dependents and we both had unemployment and we're both still waiting. Also the single filers I know that don't have children got theirs back already there was 5.6 million people and they said they were finishing off the .6 million people And that was at the end of June so I guess we'll see.. now that they're finding all this unemployment fraud and they're checking all the claims and shutting them off the IRS is taking the money from them So you'll never know what it is You can call the tax advocate service It's like a free advocate service they're like free lawyers to help you with taxes That's all you can do and they probably won't even help you because they gave up trying to help because they got flooded with millions of calls in the beginning It might be slowed down now though That's what I would do if I was you
