Get your taxes done using TurboTax

In TurboTax Online, you are prompted to input the third stimulus check information under Review down the left hand side of the screen.  You can also access your stimulus check choices by following these steps: 

  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Federal.
  • Across the top of the screen, click on Other Tax Situations.
  • At the screen We're almost there… or the screen That's all we need…,  click on Let’s keep going.
  • At the screen Let’s double-check the amount you received, answer the questions and click Continue. 

If you have not received the third stimulus check, you will receive your payment in the form of a Recovery Rebate Credit on line 30 of your 2021 Federal tax return when you file.

 

TurboTax will compare your stimulus payment amount to the computations within TurboTax.  The computations within TurboTax are based upon the information that you have entered into the tax software.  If you are due an additional amount, it will be issued as a Recovery Rebate Credit (RRC) on line 30 of the 2021 1040 tax return.

 

If you have e-filed your 2021 Federal tax return and the tax return is accepted by the IRS, you will have to amend your 2021 Federal tax return and correct the entries and calculations to receive the Recovery Rebate Credit.
