Deductions & credits
No. Don't enter $0 if you claimed a stimulus amount on your tax return and the IRS adjusted your refund.
Call the number on the top right corner of your adjustment notice. It takes some time to get a notice so you may not have received it in the mail yet.
Trace
You can't request a payment trace in TurboTax.
To start a payment trace:
- Call the IRS at 800-919-9835
- Mail or fax a completed Form 3911, Taxpayer Statement Regarding Refund PDF.
Reminder: DO NOT request a trace prior to the timeframes above. IRS assistors cannot start a trace prior to those timeframes.
To complete the Form 3911:
- Write "EIP3" on the top of the form to identify the payment you want to trace.
- Complete the form answering all refund questions as they relate to your Economic Impact Payment.
- When completing item 7 under Section 1:
- Check the box for "Individual" as the Type of return
- Enter "2021" as the Tax Period
- Do not write anything for the Date Filed
- Sign the form. If you file married filing jointly, both spouses must sign the form.
You will generally receive a response 6 weeks after the IRS receives your request for a payment trace, but there may be delays due to limited staffing.
