Deductions & credits

You don't need to report it as income on either tax return.   

 

If you are taking the standard deduction on this year's tax return (2021), and the reimbursement is for 2021, you don't need to report the income on this year's return (2021) or next year's.   If you entered it as other income, you can delete that entry.
