After you file
If you are eligible but did not receive the third stimulus that should have been sent somewhere between March and May of 2021, you will need to file a 2021 tax return to claim the Rebate Recovery Credit. The credit will be for the same amount as the stimulus payment that you were eligible for but did not receive. If you do not normally file a tax return, you will have to file one for 2021 to get your missing stimulus payment.
TurboTax has all the information you need to determine if you are eligible for the missing stimulus money. You are eligible if you are a US citizen with a social security number, no one claims you as a dependent, and you had gross income below:
- $75,000 for single or married filing separately
- $112,500 for head of household
- $150,000 for married filing jointly or qualifying widower
The third stimulus payment is $1,400 for each eligible person on your tax return.
