2020 tax processing delays and stimulus check
Hi Terry. My wife and I filed our 2020 taxes in early March to make us eligible for the 3rd stimulus check since our 2019 taxes would disqualify us. It seems there is a delay in processing 2020 taxes. Will the IRS go back and review the 3rd stimulus check eligibility once 2020 taxes are processed? I really don’t want to wait until 2022 when filing 2021 taxes to get the check. Thank you for your time.

They say they will — but you might have to file for a credit next year. Did you file 2020 electronically, and include direct deposit information? That would have given you a better chance of getting the $1400 payments this spring.
