After you file

Do NOT amend your return for the Recovery Rebate Credit (RRC) which reconciles the first and second stimulus payments if you do have the RRC included with your original return.  

 

The IRS has made it very clear by stating they do NOT want any amendments for stimulus payment changes.

If you believe the RRC was not part of your original return, and you do not see that worksheet as part of your tax return, then an amendment can be completed to be sure the do actually reconcile the payments for you.  Even though TurboTax is now excluding the unemployment benefit you should not be concerned about that when completing the amendment.

 

Likewise, they will do the adjustments for the unemployment tax benefit under the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA).
