My wife and I file a joint return, our income is under $150k, we received the stimulus amounts of $2400 and $1200. The recovery form doesn't explain what to do very well. Should we leave lines 5 & 8 at zero or enter the amount we received from the stimulus?
If left at zeros for lines 5&8, our refund is $2883.
If I enter $2400 and $1200, the refund goes to $5283, or a plus $2400.
What the correct way? The form doesn't explain what to do.
