Deductions & credits
@Josh79 The fact that they only sent you what you would have received filing as single without dependents does not mean that the situation is over for you. You will get a chance to appeal, so gather the information I suggest in my prior post. And, again, if you filed through TurboTax, then the Audit Support team can help you to organize your documents at a minimum.
And if your return was accepted via e-file, it's difficult to imagine that someone else got their claim in, because they would not have been able to e-file the same dependents and the IRS is taking forever right now to process paper-filed (mailed-in) returns. It's far more likely that they are simply questioning the dependents, period, and want to see proof before issuing a refund. They will explain either way. And if you prove you are entitled to receive the refund then they will issue it. And they will pay you interest as well.
