How do I fix my tax questions?about the stimulus?

If you have not filed your return then follow these steps:

  1. Log into TurboTax.
  2. After entering all your information click "Federal Review" at the top of your screen. 
  3. On the screen "Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount" click "Continue".
  4. You will be asked about the amounts of first round and second round stimulus payments you received.  If you did not receive a payment enter "0".
  5. TurboTax will then calculate the amount of stimulus payment remaining that you are still entitled to get. 
  6. Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of the 1040.

 

If you have already filed then please check line 30 on Form 1040 to verify that the Recovery Rebate amount is not correct. If it is wrong then you have to file an amended return (1040X) to make changes to the stimulus question. But you might want to wait until your refund or payment is processed. Please be aware that you can e-file your 2020 amended federal tax return. Please see FAQ How to amend a tax return for instructions.

 

Please see Where's My Amended Return? to check the status of your amended return.
