Was the tax refund a stimulus payment?

The second stimulus payment was not received before 2020 tax return was filed. The AGI was $2,531. The refund was $600. Did the $600 represent my missing stimulus payment? Thank you!

If you have $600 on line 30 of your Form 1040 then the $600 is a stimulus payment that was added to your refund based on your answers to the questions about whether you received the stimulus payments in 2020 or early 2021.   No one else can see your tax return so we do not know what you entered or what the return shows.
