Covid Rebate Payments

[Jamiejs2]

I e-filed a client's 1040 about 3 weeks ago. She had informed me that she had not received the Dec 2020 Covid Rebates ($600x3=$1,800). A week ago she called to tell me she found out that she actually did receive the $1,800. She was going to receive a $7,500 refund for 2020. What's the best way to handle this? Let the Feds handle the correction, or try to communicate with them? Thanks!

"She had informed me that she had not received the Dec 2020 Covid Rebates ($600x3=$1,800)."

Just another reason to make them prove it. They use the online tax account access, or they request their tax account transcript by mail, and that shows they got the money or not.
