So we both got the third one from 2021 but not the other 2 from 2020 (not sure if that matters) but I’m still confused because even so, we are still receiving less, even with our combined income. In comparison to last year.
The stimulus payments in 2020, EIP1 and EIP2, are not included in the 2021 tax return. If you never received those payments and were eligible to receive them you would have to amend the 2020 tax return to add the Recovery Rebate Credit for tax year 2020.
You would need to review the 2020 and 2021 tax returns side by side to see what changed on the 2021 return versus the 2020 return.
On the 2021 return to Not include the Recovery Rebate Credit on Line 30 of the Form 1040 when determining the difference.
