I don't know why I would have been told that either? Lazy rep? Incompetent? Who knows.
And no nothing unusual. Both he and I were born in the US to parents who were born in the US.
I checked to see if he had gotten my stimulus in case there was something weird where because we were still legally married it would have gone to him.
I am not a tax person. The entire time we were married he handled money stuff. So if some of my statements are confusing it's probably because I'm ignorant of how it works. Kinda left me high and dry with nothing so I'm basically learning it all myself for the first time.
When I am home tonight I will try and do that log thing.
If you called customer support in 2018 and/or 2019 about this problem, there will be records of that call. It would be helpful to get a diagnostic file number to go with the call record. When you filed MFS in 2018, was that a brand new turbotax account started in 2018, or was it an older account that you changed to your use?
However, I'm still confused by your situation. If you were filing MFS and you check the box for "my spouse can be claimed as a dependent by someone else" that would block your spouse's payment but not your payment. Are you posting here because your spouse is blaming you for not getting a payment, or are you posting because you did not get a payment? If you didn't get a payment, that would mean the problem was on your spouse's tax return (assuming I understand IRS procedure correctly).
