Attention TurboTax Support. You claimed to have fixed this issue last year. Well, it happened again in 2020. This glitch continues to carry over. Refer to your own link for details.

I did not check the box nor did the TurboTax software ask this question. Nonetheless, shame on me for using TurboTax again and for failing to review the final form to make sure that your software did not encounter the same glitch again.
Just like last time, I was made ineligible for the Recovery Rebate Credit because the box was checked on my 1040. This was confirmed by several IRS agents when I called last year to find out why I did not get the stimulus checks. Most recently the IRS confirmed this again (several times) when I called after the Recovery Rebate Credit was adjusted out of my refund. This same glitch likely will prevent me from getting the third stimulus check as well.
