Can you elaborate on this? After months of waiting and calling the IRS with nothing to show for it, I just assumed that I would never see any of that money.

- snakeboy 6y agoIf you didn't receive the check, there will be a section on your 2020 1040 tax form for "Recovery Rebate Credit" which seems to be the catch-all for anyone who missed the deadlines or didn't get their full amount for whatever reason. I'm an American overseas who pays his taxes, has intent to return, yada yada and never received my check, and never got the online portal to recognize me, so I'm hoping this will work.

- cozzyd 6y agoYeah, calling the IRS about this is beyond useless. Eventually they give you the way to contact someone who they claim will be able to verify your perceived eligibility in their eyes, but every time I've done that (after hours on hold) the call disconnects for some reason or their system goes down or ... At this rate, it will be faster to file my return ASAP than to try to get my stimulus check.
