After you file

It's been a difficult process to connect with the IRS since COVID and the response by mail as dramatically increased by months.  You should not be concerned since you did not get the $1.400 refund.  The two returns should cancel each other out once all is reconciled at the IRS.  Try calling very early or very late.

 

Yes, your parents should file an amended return and use the Recovery Rebate Credit (RRC) if they include you as their dependent.  They should check their return carefully to be sure you were not already included on the return and for the stimulus rebate.  If they use TurboTax they can use the steps below to include the RRC on an amended return.  Be sure they read all of the instructions for amending before they begin.

Follow the steps below to enter your information for the Rebate Recovery Credit.

 

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

  1. Sign into your account and continue from where you left off
  2. Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then on Federal Review on the top of the screen
  3. On the next page titled Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount, click on Continue
  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.
