After you file

Did you make a mistake and say you did not receive the 3rd EIP payment of $1400 last year?   If you received it last year but said on your tax return that you did not get it, the IRS took the $1400 away from your refund because you cannot get the $1400 twice.

 

If you did not get it---but the IRS says you did ---then have the payment traced.  First check your own bank records for a deposit of $1400 sometime after mid-March of last year.  And check your online IRS account.
