If you did not receive your second stimulus payment then you will have to file an amended return to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit. Please see FAQ How to amend a tax return for instructions.
Also, if you received Notice 1444 in the mail but have not received your payment as mentioned in the notice, then you need to request a trace Please see How do I request a payment trace to track my first or second Economic Impact Payments?
- After entering all your information 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. If you did not receive a payment enter "0".
- TurboTax will then calculate the amount of stimulus payment remaining that you are still entitled to get.
- Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of the 1040.
If you filed your return but forgot to include the second stimulus payment that you had received and therefore claimed the wrong Recovery Rebate Credit amount then the IRS most likely made an adjustment to your refund. Check line 30 for the Recovery Rebate and the total refund amount on line 34 of Form 1040. Please see IRS Recovery Rebate Credit Q D2 What happens if I claim the incorrect amount? for additional information. If not then you will need to amend your return (1040X) and send the funds back to the IRS. Please see FAQ How to amend a tax return for instructions.
