Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The IRS is not going to go backwards and issue the 3rd EIP payment to you based on 2020.   Only your 2021 income will be considered for the recovery rebate credit.   If your 2021 income is too high then you can only get a phased out amount or maybe nothing.

To be clear, by filing taxes early last year I've lost out on the 3rd EIP. Had I waited until after the rule change I would have received the full amount. So the lesson is to wait until the last moment to file?
