Client received a partial Recovery Rebate Credit due to higher income in 2019, How do I get ProConnect to include the missing credit on 1040 for 2020?

I've entered their Economic Impact Payments received into the Recovery Rebate Credit boxes in ProConnect, but form 1040 line 30 is still blank even though the AGI from line 11 is below the phase out limit. Any ideas how to correct this?

I've done everything mentioned in the linked article. But the correct credit is not showing up on the return.

I'm having a similar problem for someone who was dependent in 2019 but not 2020, so eligible for the full credit now. I entered -1 in both spots, and nothing is showing up for the credit.

"who was dependent in 2019 but not 2020"

If the person is not a dependent in 2020, then they would be entitled to the payment/credit as individual filers. That doesn't mean "not being claimed." It means "no longer qualifies as a dependent."

You might want to bookmark these links and read the IRS guidance.

The taxpayer is eligible. Information entered correctly into ProConnect per their instructions. Credit still not appearing on return. Is there another spot not mentioned in the ProConnect article that requires input?

You MUST fill out both, Economic Impact Payment 1 & 2.
