2019 Tax Return

By Terry Savage on March 20, 2021 | Wild Card

Hi Terry,
You recently helped clear up my second stimulus and how to get it via line 30. I think I might have figured out why we got the first and not the second or now probably the third! When I log in to my IRS account I do not see my 2019 return posted even though we mailed it and payed what we owed on-line. Let me know if you agree? Is there anyway to get the IRS to post that return? Are we outta luck for the third stimulus because of this?
TY!!!

No, you’re not out of luck. The IRS commissioner just announced they hope to catch up on 2019 by midsummer!!
I assume you already filed your 2020 return. They will catch it when they review that return. If not you can claim it next year on your 2021 return, but that shouldn’t be necessary.
