You can file an amended 2021 return to unclaim your 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit.
First, check with the IRS to verify whether or not you received a payment. If you claimed the credit but IRS says they sent it to you, your third stimulus may have gotten lost.
Go to Your Online Account to check whether you actually received a payment. See Get My Payment.
If a payment was sent but never received, you can request a payment trace.
See: Topic J: Payment Issued but Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Not Received
If you need to amend your 2021 return see How do I amend my federal tax return?
To change your stimulus in your 2021 return:
- Type "stimulus" in Search in the upper right
- Select "Jump to stimulus"
- TurboTax will show you the amount of stimulus you’re entitled to and ask whether the amount matches what you got
- Say Yes or No. If No, enter the amount you actually received or is shown in your IRS account.
If your stimulus payment looks correct, send a copy of the Recovery Rebate Credit Worksheet from TurboTax showing how Form 1040, line 30 was computed.
