After you file

It depends.  If you are referring to your federal return for 2022, the stimulus is no longer available for 2022.  

 

If you are referring to an earlier year, then you can amend the 2021 return to account for your stimulus payments.  Review all of the information before you begin so that TurboTax knows the original numbers and the amended numbers.

Use the instructions below for a 2021 tax return.

In TurboTax Online, to claim the Recovery Rebate credit please do the following:

  4. Follow the interview
  5. TurboTax will determine whether you are entitled to any additional stimulus
  6. Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of your form 1040
