Also the third stimulus or the 21 check shows the same amount on both my wife's IRS account and My IRS account
If what you are saying about the splitting of the amount is true then why does both of our IRS accounts show $5600 on March 17th 2021
Its not broken down into 2750 on hers and 2750 on mine. It shows 5600 on mine and 5600 on hers and we only received one check for 5600
If you guys who are responding work for Turbo tax you need to your information corrected because clearly its not correct. I have screen shots but the images are too large to upload here
There are not mine and hers on a joint tax return. The amount received from the stimulus payments is the total received.
For EIP1 you received $1.200 for each of you on a joint tax return plus $500 for each eligible dependent under the age of 17.
For EIP2 you received $600 for each of you on a joint tax return plus $600 for each eligible dependent under the age of 17.
If you received these amounts then there would not be anything entered on the Form 1040 Line 30 if you answered the questions presented to you correctly.
The third stimulus is not relevant on the 2020 tax return. That stimulus payment is from the IRS and based on either the 2020 or 2019 federal tax return that was filed and received by the IRS.
Go to this IRS website for information on the third stimulus payment - https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment
