I am so sorry to hear that. When I spoke to the IRS they said they put a referral on my account to be looked at and she included all the notes because she admits it is an error and I should qualify for stimulus payments. She estimated 30 days to get back to me at the max regarding it. Once they get back to me, depending on the solution/answer, I may have to get a Tax Advocate to see about getting this resolved. I cannot believe this is STILL going on a year later.
In my case, this is an error. However, I can't help but wonder about people who ARE in that situation. What if my husband and I were separated or whatever and he COULD be claimed as a dependent elsewhere but I AM NOT. Does that mean my child and I shouldn't get a stimulus payment? His status should have NOTHING to do with my stimulus.
Hope this gets fixed :( Will update when I know more.
