Deductions & credits

You had the 2,838 entered on 1040 line 30?  Did you already get the first and second Stimulus payments?  Line 30 is only if you qualify for more.

 

That's been a common problem.  You might have answered the Stimulus questions wrong and tried to claim  it again or some more on line 30.  So the IRS took it off because you already got it.  They know they sent it to you.
