Thank you for posting this here. I mentioned this on Reddit to others. A bunch of us became ineligible because of this same thing. When contacting the IRS, they claim that you are not eligible because someone claimed you as a dependent. When pushed further, they finally admitted there is a glitch but dont know how to fix it. All they tell you is to call again in a couple weeks to see if they have a fix or received instructions on how to fix it manually.
One IRS agent claimed that if the box is checked for either person, then both are disqualified for the Stimulus Check. Chances are this will not be fixed this year and we will not be eligible for the second check either.
When its time to file our 2020 taxes, that is when we would get it. Unfortunately, for some it will be a little too late as they need the money now.
If this is a screw up on TurboTax's part and since they can confirm eligibility, they should fix this or upfront the money. When its time to file taxes, they can get it then from the IRS.
