State tax filing
***This only impacts people who made less than the cutoff for the 3rd stimulus in 2020, but more than the cutoff in 2021***
This response only works if you made less than 160k (I believe this is the number, married filing jointly) in 2021. If you made more than that, it will not ask you about the stimulus. This is a bug in the program if you live in Oregon where that information is needed for the Oregon return. The 3rd stimulus checks were based on 2020 income before 2021 income was known, so it is possible to have qualified for and received the 3rd stimulus check while having a 2021 income that would not qualify, and the program does not allow for this. Now that I finally understand what the program error is, I found a work around for this:
1. Subtract income off of a W2 to bring total income below the income restriction
2. Go back and answer the stimulus question that is now available due to lower income
3. Correct the W2 before filing!!
