Deductions & credits

Greetings,

 

If you are referring to the unemployment compensation exclusion, the IRS has indicated that they will automatically send out any additional refund owed.  The IRS began sending out these payments / checks in July of this year.

 

Unfortunately, the IRS reports that is has a backlog of over 35 million tax returns to process, so many people are having their refunds delayed because of this.

 

You can see if the IRS processed your refund (and for how much) is by viewing your tax records online. You can  request a copy of your transcript by mail or through the IRS' automated phone service by calling 1-800-908-9946.   Here is a link to the IRS site with more information:

Good luck - I hope you get your refund soon!
