Stimulus checks with negative agi? Irs wont accept Negative Numbers ?

Leave off the part that gets you to a negative?

I created an account just to answer your question. I tried a few different ways but I finally got it to work. 1) If you had a negative agi. Enter the number without the negative before it. So instead of typing 0 or -526, just write 526. 2) check your tax return to double check which bank account was used for deposit. If you haven’t used a bank account in the past for deposit, I cannot guarantee that this will work. Only thing I can guarantee is that when I put the positive number instead of negative, and entered the bank account listed on my tax return, it finally went through. Hope this helps.

I am trying to chenge the information for my stimulous check and is not accepting a negative number how can do it ?

We just submitted a stimulus request for a client with a negative AGI.  IRS accepted the total AGI number without the negative connotation.  So an agi of  -561 should be entered simply as 561.  The algorithm is looking to match the numbers only.

Hope this helps.

This just worked this morning for me:

AGI- take the whole number of the AGI. For example a  -1515 would be entered as 1515. No parenthesis and no - symbol just the whole number. 

IMPORTANT: next questions asks if you are getting a refund or if you owe...THIS is where most are getting caught up and this is the magic...answer that you OWE MONEY. Then when it asks how much put 0. I know I put that I was getting a refund and then 0 last time and got locked out.

AGAIN, 

whole number AGI 

You OWE money

Amount owed 0

Hope it works for you as well. Hang in there and all the best.
