After you file
If you were getting stimulus payments based on yourself and your daughter, the full amount for the first payment was 1200 for you and 500 for your child (since the child was born in 2020).
The second payment would have been 600 for you and 600 for your child.
The third payment would have been 1,400 each, so 2,800 sounds right.
You can check the IRS Your Online Account to see what the IRS has on their record as what you were already issued for the payments.
One thing to keep in mind, since the child was not born until 2020, you may not have received the proper amount of stimulus PAYMENTS, but you may have gotten the difference as a credit on your 2020 tax return. That would have been on your 2020 Form 1040 Line 30.
ADDITIONALLY did you remember to enter the amount of any Advance Child Tax Payments you received?
Those payments may have been sent to you and those payments are different than stimulus payments.
They must also be entered into the TurboTax program so that the amount issued is subtracted from your Child Tax Credit.
If you find you are missing the first and/or second stimulus payments, you need to file an amended 2020 return to get that missing amount as a credit.
