How to view claimed stimulus money on return?

[avigo45]

Before filing I forgot to double check and make sure I put the stimulus money me and my wife received into my return when filing. I think I remember being asked and inputting that info, but can’t remember. Where on my actual return can I find if I correctly put my income from stimulus checks? Thanks for the help

Any stimulus funds you were eligible to receive, based on your 2020 tax return, but did not receive will be on your federal tax return Form 1040 Line 30.  If there is no amount on Line 30 then you entered the stimulus payments you received and they equaled the payments you should have received.

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

Or -

When you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a state. 

This will take you back to the 2020 online tax return.

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Then click on Print Center.  Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.

Thank you!

I haves “0” for lines 27 through 32. Does that mean I accurately input the stimulus payments I received? (We received both for last year and I think I remember putting in that full amount). I just want to make sure it’s recorded and I didn’t do anything wrong. To confirm, I have no amount  after line 30 (or on any lines 27 through 32)

Yes, you entered the stimulus payments you received accurately.  Otherwise there would have been an amount on Line 30.

Thanks so much. So does that mean that taxes aren't paid on the stimulus money? Just seems counterintuitive to me for there to be a "0" where I am recording income I received. And I just want to make sure I did everything right.

The stimulus payments are not taxable income.  They are an advance tax credit from the 2020 federal tax return and the payments received are not reported on the 2020 tax return as income.
