Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Bottom line is that you should enter what you actually received regardless of what the IRS shows on your letter.

 

Compare the amount on the letter (if you received one) with the deposits you received.  Next use the IRS CTC Update Portal to see if this agrees with what you actually received.
