You should choose Adding or Updating a tax form, since you are updating form 1040 for the recovery rebate credit.

@ThomasM125 Do I just have to click “do not see form listed”? I’m very confused by this process. I have the free package so I can’t do live help. And no one in my house has ever amended their taxes before. Whenever I click “do not see form listed” I can’t seem to find where to put the total for missing stimulus checks.
