What you did with the stimulus check you received is not relevant. You do not have to enter anything about what you did with the stimulus money. when you answer the questions for the recovery rebate credit. You do have to enter how MUCH you received for the stimulus check, because you cannot get it twice. Make sure it is not showing up again as a credit on line 30 of your 2021 Form 1040 if you already got it.
If you say you did not get it when you did, it will delay your refund for months.
