How do I go back to the stimulus check question so I can answer it. Don’t say put stimulus in search because jump to stimulus is not there?

I  missed answering the stimulus question first time around.  Tried going back from search and tried asking you and your answer was search stimulus and it was say jump to stimulus but that did not come back.

If you did not receive your first and/or second stimulus payment or if the amount received is not correct, you can claim it on your 2020 tax return as the Recovery Rebate Credit. 

  

In TurboTax Online, to claim the Recovery Rebate credit please do the following: 

  1. Sign into your account and continue from where you left off 

  2. Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then on Federal Review on the top of the screen 

  3. On the next page titled Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount, click on Continue 

  4. Follow the interview 

  5. TurboTax will determine whether you are entitled to any additional stimulus 

  6. Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of your form 1040.

I have the same question (needing to change info regarding the stimulus payments), but I do not use the online version of TurboTax. 

With the CD version of TurboTax, where do I go to enter my stimulus payments? (FYI, I didn't get the second stimulus payment.)

To return to the stimulus questions in a desktop version, click the "Federal Taxes" tab and then the "Federal Review" tab.

To get to the jump to, enter stimulus in the search box and then click the magnifying glass. Don't press enter on keyboard after entering "stimulus"
