If you could not be claimed as someone else's dependent for 2021, you might be eligible for the 2021 stimulus---use the recovery rebate credit in Federal Review. The credit will show up on line 30 of your Form 1040.
Before you do that, check to see what the IRS shows for you for that check. A lot of people were confused and received it without realizing what it was.

You may also want to explore purchasing the software from various retailers such as Amazon, Costco, Best Buy, Walmart, Sam’s, etc.
Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
