Can I receive a retroactive refund from The American Rescue Plan? I paid a hefty amount in taxes for 2020 due to unemployment I collected.

A friend shared that they received money back in Summer of 2021. Why have I received no information from the IRS?

The IRS is still processing 2020 returns that did not include the $10,200 exclusion for unemployment benefits.

 

The IRS is still advising that you wait and not file an amended income tax return or contact the IRS.
