Get your taxes done using TurboTax

When there is a joint return, the IRS issues 2 letters 6475.  One for the husband and one for the wife.  The amounts listed on each letter must be entered  are basically added together to determine the correct amount received by the family.

 

I recommend preparing the return using both of the letters received to determine the correct amount received.  Or just enter the amount you actually received in 2021.  IRS will make adjustments if necessary before issuing a refund.
