I really have no idea because the credit is technically supposed to be an advanced credit and a person would think that if everything checked out on the 2020 tax filing, as far as income and dependent eligibility, that there would be no need to go back to look at a 2018 or 2019 return.
I just got the feeling that the IRS representative just told me what she needed to in order to get me off the phone. I only filed the amended return in hopes that I may have been able to collect my economic impact payment this year instead of having to wait, but I’ve given up on that ever happening. I only called the IRS again today due to the post about getting my account “marked” but that ended up being an unsuccessful attempt. The amendment I filed still hasn’t been processed and the rep knew nothing about “marking” tax returns over a turbo tax glitch.
