In the 1040A instructions Book fm the IRS, It's stated "You
cannot request the credit or refund if you have already
received a credit or refund fm your service Provider" This
sounds like some people might have already received the
credit fm their provider. Am I wrong? I need a little help
on why it's written that way. I just learned about the
credit and want to make sure I am eligible.
