I am being denied the stimulus check due to the "first time home buyer credit," but my ex-husband got the house in the divorce settlement. How do I fix this?

There is no withholding of the economic impact payments for the first time home buyer credit,or any other tax obligation.

Therefore there isn't anything that you need to fix.

The majority of U.S. taxpayers haven't yet received payments -they have only just begun distribution with a small percentage of taxpayers seeing deposits currently pending.
