Retired couple deemed ineligible for second stimulus checks IRS says former math teacher and accountant may still collect 2021 recovery rebate Updated: Tags: ORLANDO, Fla. – Derrol and Donnie Sadler are convinced the IRS just made a mathematical blunder at their expense blocking the $1,200 they were supposed to receive in stimulus money last December. “I don’t know how the IRS works,” Derrol Sadler said during a Zoom interview from her home, “But I know there’s no reason.” Derrol is a retired 7th-grade math teacher and contacted News 6 after the couple’s IRS status on the irs.gov website showed “not enough information or not eligible " for the second $600 stimulus checks. The two were supposed to receive $1,200.
