After you file

As you were finishing up your return, you were asked about the recovery rebate and how much you received.  You likely entered $0, but as you noted you received the $2,800 in March so you should have entered $2,800 instead of $0. When you told TurboTax $0, it included it in your refund, however, this was a one time payment so since you already received it, the IRS new this and removed it from your refund.

 

The only people who should be getting the Recovery Rebate with their tax refunds are those who did not receive the payment at all last year.
