After you file

Yes, we both checked our joint checking and savings accounts, and did not receive anything at all in 2021.  And $4,200 was the amount TurboTax calculated on line 30. Our son only receives Social Security Disability (since the age of 18), and he is 100% dependent on us for care. He is blind, nonverbal, wheelchair-bound with no purposeful function of hands, head, or basically his entire body, and intellectually/cognitively impaired. He receives less than $1,000/month, and that money is used for specific items we've purchased/constructed for him and his care (clothing, handicap van, building on a HCA bathroom for him, installing an overhead lift in our home, etc.) I think our best bet is through the Taxpayer Advocate Service, although they website says they're backed up as well.
