In addition, another 6 million returns, many of them 2020 tax returns, are “essentially in suspension,” Rettig told the Appropriations Committee’s Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government. The same holds true if you claimed a missed stimulus payment on your 2020 tax return. The IRS must manually review tax returns that claimed a credit amount that isn’t the same amount the IRS shows a person should be getting, Rettig said.
