If you have already filed your return & it has been accepted, then you cannot change it, & you can't amend your return. The IRS has all the information about who received or did not receive the stimulus money & they will automatically correct your return.
If you have not filed your return or it gets rejected you can fix it:
- Log into TurboTax.
- After entering all your information click "Federal Review" at the top of your screen.
- On the screen "Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount" click "Continue".
- You will be asked about the amounts of first round and second round stimulus payments you received. If you did not receive a payment enter "0" or enter the amount you have received.
- TurboTax will then calculate the amount of stimulus payment remaining that you are still entitled to get.
- Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of the 1040.
