I have this saved from last year...not sure if the prompts have changed or not, but you get the general idea of how to work the telephone tree.
Call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 weekdays from 7am to 7pm local time.
At the first prompt press 1 for English.
At the next menu press 2 for questions about your personal income taxes.
At the next menu press 1 for questions about a form you have already submitted, your tax history, or payment.
At the next menu press 4 for all other questions about your tax history or payment.
At the next menu press 2 for all other questions about your tax history or payment.
There will be a brief pause. When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything. After it asks twice, you will get another menu. Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
It will then put you in the queue for a live agent, and tell you the estimated wait time.

@jhusaw73 - this is a 2 year old post you are tagging a totally unrelated comment to. If you have a question ask a new question and provide the details.

Testimony before congress yesterday by the IRS commissioner:
"More than eight million phone calls to the agency's customer service line went unanswered in the last filing season. Koskinen added that the agency hasn't fully funded customer service for the last "three or four years," and that about $900 million had been pulled from cybersecurity."
Worse this year - be prepared for a long wait.

There is an error on the Qualified Dividend Form for 2020. when line 3 do not use Schedule D is X, an amount is still entered anyway which makes line 4 doubled and does not match 1040SR line 7. Where will I find the answer posted.
Several forms and worksheets have not yet been finalized.
However, when I entered Qualified Dividends, with no Schedule D, TurboTax did not put a figure on line 3, so perhaps the issue has been resolved.

Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."

Did you complete and file a 2020 federal tax return and indicate on the tax return that you did not receive the 2nd stimulus payment?
