No - I deleted that post's content because it misguidedly blamed turbotax's step-by-step for my mistake. I didn't remember that my wife also received an Economic Impact Payment in 2021 and, since we file jointly, that half should have included in the entry.☹️
A2. You can find the amount of the third Economic Impact Payments in one of the following ways:
- Your online account. It's an online IRS application that allows you to securely access your individual account information. The amounts of your third Economic Impact Payments are shown on the Tax Records tab/page under the section "Economic Impact Payment Information." If you and your spouse received joint payments, each of you will need to sign into your own online account to retrieve your separate amounts.
- Your Notice 1444-C, Your Third Economic Impact Payment, which shows the amount of the third payment. If you received joint payments with your spouse, the letters show the total amount of each payment. If you file separate 2021 tax returns, each of you must enter half of the amount of the payment shown on Notice 1444-C. Individuals who received plus-up payments received a separate Notice 1444-C after each payment was issued.
- Letter 6475, Your 2021 Economic Impact Payment(s). Through March 2022, we'll send this letter confirming the total amount of the third Economic Impact Payment and any plus-up payments you received for tax year 2021. If you and your spouse received joint payments, each of you will receive your own letter showing half of the third payment. Each spouse may receive their letter at different times. If filing a joint return in 2021, include both amounts when calculating the 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit. If you file separate 2021 tax returns, each of you must enter your half of the payment amount, which is shown on your own Letter 6475, when calculating any 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit you may be eligible to claim on your own return.
- Your 2021 account transcript, which you can request online or by mail using Get Transcript. You may also call our automated phone transcript service at [phone number removed] for it be sent by mail or you can submit Form 4506-T. If you received joint payments with your spouse, the transcript shows the total amount of each payment under the primary taxpayer. If you file separate 2021 tax returns, each of you must enter half of amount of the payment.
