Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The stimulus was tax free.  The program has a refund tracker that is designed to show your refund as you go.  It always starts with the maximum refund - which in this case assumes that you didn't get the third stimulus and are going to add it to your refund.  When you told it "I already got it" it removed the stimulus payment from your refund, changing it by $1400.
