The best way to get your stimulus payments is to file a 2020 tax return. You can prepare a 2020 tax return for stimulus payments you qualify for, but have not received by the end of January.
To do this in TurboTax, please follow these steps:
- Go to Turbotax.com and select the Free version of TurboTax.
- Enter your personal information in your return.
- Click Federal Review at the top of your screen.
- On the screen, Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount, click Continue.
- You will be asked about the amounts of first round and second round stimulus payments you received.
- TurboTax will then calculate the amount of stimulus payment remaining that you are still entitled to. This will show as a credit on line 30 of the 1040.
