Deductions & credits

You say: "The Recovery rebate credit on line 30 is only if you didn't get the Stimulus payment or qualify for more."  And that says it all, doesn't it.   Because we DIDN'T get them.  The only way I know of to get them is to put the amount due on line 30. The only way to do that is to LIE to Turbotax and say the amount on the letter is wrong.   The amount is RIGHT. The IRS is acknowledging in the letter we are entitled to it.  But the IRS does not claim in the letter or on the website that the amount was ever, on any date, either mailed to us or deposited in one of our accounts. Because it never was. How would they know what account to put it in anyway?  We never told them.
