Rang the IRS today to find out that my 2018 return had the following box checked: "Spouse standard deduction: [x] Someone can claim your spouse as a dependent".
I've done a MFS filing status for years and never once have I checked a box stating my wife can be claimed as a dependent... the lady makes more than I do! I've used TT for years and never once... have I checked that box. All of a sudden I get a 2018 return with that box checked? Something isn't right here and I would advise someone to correct it with some sort of monetary compensation. Call me out of line, call me whatever you want... but my demands are warranted. Why?? Because clearly there are people who have the same sentiment as I do and it's quite obvious there is/was an underlying "BUG, GLITCH, ERROR, MALFUNCTION ETC..."" that caused others and myself to miss out on the economic stimulus.
It's absolutely absurd and would love to get this resolved with a payment STAT.
Pay up!!!
