So I did.
Come to find out, since we filed an amendment, and even though we paid the money that was due with the amendment, they are holding our rebate/or any credits on our account for 8-12 weeks until the Amendment can be processed by them. They cashed the check right away though!
I am pretty upset about this. This stimulus payment shouldn't hinge on anything. It is money that is given to us. It is supposed to stimulate the economy. If I paid taxes and owed more, any other time they would just bill me. In this case, neither is true. We don't owe any more and all is fine.
Sounds against what Congress was meaning for this money!
Second, we did not get docked for filing owning a business. We WILL be getting the full amount WHEN they decide to process the amended return (she said prolly in July).
So, for those that got docked for filing personal/business, I wonder if you had other criteria? Seems odd.

I'm sorry this happened to you. let me try to explain a little more, I know it won't help, and it still stinks but, Once a 1040X (amended return) goes into the system, it puts a "freeze" on the account because we don't know what is on that amended return till it's worked. It also holds the money you sent in with it till it can be worked so it does not refund out. 8-12 weeks is the normal processing time for an amened return. Some are done sooner, I hope yours is!
