Deductions & credits

hey @Mizmokitty22 . I’ve made the same mistake unfortunately.. From what I’ve seen, one source says that if you were not claimed that you may still be eligible. However, the IRS page makes it seem that if you filed that you can be claimed then you are ineligible. The only thing I’m aware that we can do is try to amend your tax forms, send it in & hope for the best. Of course this will take a couple weeks for it to be finalized. 

 

I would recommend that you wait for somebody with more expertise to use to chime in before you do so. In the meantime, check out irs.gov/Coronavirus/get-my-payment to see your current status on receiving the “Economic Impact Payment”. I foolishly did so only after filing the amendment, so it says status unavailable. Hopefully you’re in the clear to get it though!
