I have all it says is you didn’t claim anyone and I did. I thought the reason for this was to get help
The Turbotax forum can offer some limited tax help and suggestions. No one on this forum has the authority to intervene with the IRS and "make" them do something. The advice and suggestions we can give you is the following:
1. The IRS is hugely backlogged and it's amazing anyone got paid this month. We don't know why some people who apparently qualify didn't get paid, and the IRS does not give out that information to anyone but the taxpayer (even if they were taking phone calls, which they are not).
2. The IRS is supposed to allow people to enroll new or skipped children later this summer or fall. There is nothing you can do before then to claim the advanced credit.
3. If you don't get the advance payment or don't get the full amount, it will appear as a credit on your tax return. The advance payment doesn't change the amount you receive, only the timing of when you receive it.
