Short Taxes

Same for me, I was (will be) shorted about $1,300.  Did you get a letter from the IRS saying your TurboTax return was in error due to the Recovery Rebate Credit?  I did, so instead of receiving ~$1,200, I have to pay ~ $800.

I think the IRS screwed up the amounts declared when it sent us out the last letter.  Mine was the one from 1/14/22 Letter #6475 "Total 2021 Economic Impact Payment".  Turbo Tax suggested one amount & this letter had a totally different amount.  

So...I entered the amount the IRS SAID I received, and now the IRS says I owe.

Not sure of the solution other than to contact the IRS through the phone number given on the letter.

TurboTax is not allowing me to have any direct contact with them (they have my money & say the IRS has accepted my filing...so they're done with me!)  other than to find multitudes of "frequently asked questions" which were useless.

Did you get the IRS letter saying you now owe?

This is a common problem this year and is something only the IRS can answer.  However, we are finding that many people either never realized they did receive the third stimulus payment or they forgot they received it.

You can visit your IRS online account to see what payment you received and when you received it.  You should also go back through your bank account starting in March 2021, to look for the $2,800 payment.  It may have been received as $1,400 twice.
