We are still waiting for our refund for 1040 efiled in March (still pending per where's my refund) but now realized we're not going to get the monthly child tax credit payments because "Your eligibility is pending." We qualify using 2019 or 2020 amounts (stay at home spouse).

We don't need it early, but have to imagine that countless others are in our situation but don't have the luxury of waiting. I've called IRS at least a dozen times since but never get through to an actual person.

Same here. Still waiting for my tax return to be processed. We didn’t qualify for the stimulus payments before since they were using the 2019 amount but a lot had changed in 2020 and we qualify for the stimulus now. I received the 3rd payment recently and they factored in my son who was born in 2020 even though my return is still processing 🤷🏻‍♀️

Fifty-something caught in the work transfer of a spouse. Haven’t really found that niche yet in SW Florida. Retirement funded nicely; emergency account in place; house paid off; kids college completed. Need something fulfilling. Go back to school full time at this age for about 3/4 years to start a “new career” (zero income coming in on my part) or find something to tolerate for the next approximate ten years — until retirement. Always been high functioning so this is a tough decision.
