I just efiled my 2021 tax return without stimulus payment info. Turbo system didn't prompt to check on stimulus payment received in 2021 and it skipped my mind too. Also, I just received notification that Federal tax was accepted. Key question is should I amend my tax return to show those numbers or assume IRS will fix it using their records because it is non-taxable.
You would have seen the stimulus question in the TurboTax program after completing the federal tax return. The question was in Federal Review if you were eligible to receive the Recovery Rebate Credit.
There are only two reasons why the stimulus question would not have been presented to you.
1. You are being claimed as a dependent
2. Your 2021 Adjusted Gross Income is above the maximum to receive the Recovery Rebate Credit
• Single or married filing separately—$80,000
• Married filing jointly or qualifying widow(er)—$160,000
• Head of household—$120,000
Look at your tax return Form 1040 Line 30. If it is blank (empty) then you have indicated that you did in fact receive the 3rd stimulus payment. If Line 30 has an amount entered then you indicated that you did Not receive the stimulus payment.
The IRS will review your entries on your tax return. If the IRS has records showing that the stimulus payment was sent to you they will remove the credit on Line 30 of the tax return if a credit was entered.
