While I filed I was informed that I would receive money for having two adult dependents. When I finished filing it said how much I was owed. It did not mention the money for my dependents. I never received the money.

You do not receive money for having adult dependents. If you could claim adult dependents you get the NON-refundable credit for other dependents of $500 for each adult dependent. The credit is used toward your tax liability. It is not added to your refund.

You do not get a separate payment for a dependent. The credit for your dependents was subtracted from the total amount of tax that you owed, so you owed less because of the dependents.

Look at your Form 1040. The credit for other dependents is on Form 1040 line 19. It's not necessarily $500 for each dependent. The amount depends on your total tax.

Also look at the Dependents section in the middle of the first page of your Form 1040. The last column on the right is for the credit for other dependents. If the box in that column is checked for each dependent, then you got the credit.

Thank you for responding. I couldn't access the tax document after I filed. I never saw it. I didn't owe the amount it said I would be receiving. Chatting with TurboTax did not help. The ai chat did not give me access to the file. Also, found no way to call by searching for a number on here and a Google search got me to a number but there wasn't any response.
