The questions regarding stimulus payments were confusing and I've already filed my taxes. How can I know review that information, or can I? Only received 1 stimulus in 2020, but may have answered that 2 were received.

You can use the Amend/Change Your Tax Return option in TurboTax to go back and look at your entries. Also, you will see an option to print out your tax return on your timeline when you log into TurboTax.

You should wait until you receive your refund before you do anything, though, since the IRS may adjust your return if they determine you didn't complete it properly and include amounts in your refund that weren't indicated on your tax return.

Thank you for the reply. I'm not getting a refund, but I will go back and see if I can see my actual questions. The tax prep has been finished and tax returns sent out. I didn't see anywhere on the tax forms to show how I replied to the stimulus questions, but I'll look again.

The only thing that will show up for the stimulus payments is if there is an amount on 1040 line 30 claiming more. How much on on your line 30?

When you go through the federal review tab it will ask how much you got if any. Or to enter your stimulus payment in TurboTax, type "stimulus" (without the quotes) in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to stimulus." Say no to the amounts it shows you. Then 2 boxes will open up for each round. If you didn't get one enter a 0 in the box.

After you have entered your tax information and are ready for the Federal Review, it will be the first question.

If you are trying to trigger it, you can go to Other Situations, answer any questions and click Done. The next automatic selection is Federal Review and it will ask about payments received.

The Recovery rebate credit is on 1040 line 30. It either adds to your refund or reduces a tax due.
