I have a problem with my program I think.   It is taking off the stimulus that the parent is getting for a new

baby born in 2020.  In everything we have read it says that the parent can get this if the child was born anytime in 2020.  I do not understand this.  Are we not understanding this.

Have you reviewed the Recovery Rebate Credit Worksheet?   What have you entered on line 16 and 19?

Do the parents have the same number of children as the previous year? If they alternate a different child with another parent, the RRC goes by the number of children total, not specific children.

I have seen the same thing. It has happened on two returns. The IRS is also showing the lesser amount of $1100 on their site. Is this something Proseries changed before sending to the IRS? My clients are questioning me on this and everything I read shows they should get it. Need an explanation to tell our clients.
