I filed electronically using TurboTax as Head of Household. I never received any stimulus checks and therefore had an amount due to me. The IRS ended up adjusting out the $1,800 from my refund even though I am eligible. The possible reasons spelled out on the adjustment notice did not apply.

 

When I called to inquire and pointed out that none of the reasons specified were applicable, they said it was because the "Someone else can claim: my spouse as a dependent" box was checked on my 1040.

 

In a prior response here, I already posted how this box was checked due to a TurboTax glitch. Even though the box pertains to my spouse, it was enough for the IRS to make me ineligible for any of the stimulus.

 

If I was to file a 1040x, it would be for all three stimulus checks.
