manipulating the recovery rebate credit
I have a MFJ client who did not receive a EIP in 2019 because together they made more than the threshold of $150,000: husband made $63,000 and wife made $132,000. Now in 2020, they want to file MFS so that the husband, who made less than the $75,000 single threshold cam claim the unreceived rebate from 2019. Can they do this? Can you manipulate the recovery rebate credit worksheet like this?
