Login in to Rate this Post:     0       ?        
filed tax as single in 2018 as wife was in Nepal and didn't have GC and ssn
Now Wife have GC but no SSN yet. So, yet need to file a tax of 2019 once wife got ssn. have one child as dependent too. Want to file married jointly for 2019.

stimulus cheque round 1
I believe I am eligible for $2900 ($1200 for me, $1200 for wife and $500 for child(dependent))

IRS sent only $1200 cheque based on 2018 tax filing as single.

How can I get full $2900?
