Recovery Rebate and MFS worksheet

[paul13]

I have a return for a couple MFJ 2019 with 1 child. They received stimulus payments of $2900 and $1800. 2020 MFS comparison worksheets shows a $1000 tax savings if they file MFS because it included a RRC for the lower earning spouse. Is this a loophole or an error in the program?

Your clients got the full amounts, already? There is no further credit to anyone. Did you allocate who got what, properly?

It was the allocation. It seems so obvious now but just could not see it the other day. Thanks!
