I did taxes through TT and based on that, it was determined that we did not receive our stimulus for 2021 so I took the credit on taxes but now IRS removed it?

LOTS of people have made mistakes this year with the recovery rebate credit by "forgetting" that they received the $1400 per person stimulus checks last year.  They answered no to the questions for the  recovery recovery rebate credit and put the $1400 per person on line 30 of their returns.  But you cannot get it twice, so the IRS removes it when it is there by mistake.   The IRS sent letter 6475 to each spouse who received the $1400---did you enter the amounts from each of your letters?

 

 

 

Try checking your online account with the IRS (for each of you)

Does the IRS show that you received a $1400 stimulus or EIP check in 2021?   Did you receive it?   When you were asked on your tax return did you say no?   Was there $1400 per person on line 30 of your tax return?  If you already received it your line 30 should have been blank.

 

If the IRS says you got $1400 last year but you did not receive it you can have it traced.

If you need to trace a payment that the IRS says has been issued to you, mail or fax a completed IRS Form 3911, Taxpayer Statement Regarding Refund.
