I received a stimulus amount both in 2020 and 2021. Do I report the 2021 amount on my 2020 return. There is a block in turbo tax to do so  and the instructions are not clear if I report the 2021 amount.


The $600 you received in January 2021 is to be entered on the 2020 federal tax return in the Federal Review section where it asks about the stimulus payments received.  The stimulus payment is an advance tax credit from the 2020 federal tax return so it must be claimed on the 2020 return.
