How do I force the TTax interview to go to a certain section? In my case, I need claim the stimulus money but it bypasses those questions.

I go to "other tax situations" and then click "let's keep going" as suggested in the help, but the program next takes me directly to the federal review page.

What do you see when you click on Federal Review?

 

If you are not being taken to that section to enter stimulus payments it is because according to your 2020 federal tax return you are not eligible for a stimulus payment.

Did you indicate that you can be claimed as a dependent in the My Info section of the program?  Verify your answer since dependents are not eligible for a stimulus payment.

 

Is your 2020 AGI greater than these values? -

 • $150,000 if married filing jointly or qualifying widow(er)
• $112,500 if head of household
• $75,000 if single or married filing separately
