You cannot correct it now. You were only asked if you received the 3rd EIP payment---the one for $1400 per person. If you really received that payment ---but said you did not--- then the IRS will catch your mistake and reduce your refund by the amount you put on line 30 by mistake. Expect that to delay your refund--you will be waiting longer.

The IRS knows the stimulus payments were sent to you. They will adjust your tax return accordingly and if you are still receiving a tax refund, this will delay the refund by several weeks or longer.

You do not have to amend the 2021 tax return.
