If you're eligible for the second stimulus check and you haven't filed a 2020 income tax return, file it and claim the Recovery Rebate Credit. See How do I claim the Recovery Rebate Credit in TurboTax?

 

If you filed a 2020 income tax return, you'll need to amend it for the second stimulus check by claiming the Recovery Rebate Credit. 

 

 

To be eligible for the second stimulus payment, your adjusted gross income (AGI) is below,

  • $75,000 for individuals
  • $112,500 for heads of household
  • $150,000 for married, joint filers

You should receive $600 per individual plus $600 per qualifying child.

 

For filers with income above those amounts, the payment amount is reduced by $5 for each $100 above the $75,000/$112,500/$150,000 thresholds. This means:

  • An individual without children will not receive any payment if their AGI exceeds $87,000
  • A couple without children will not receive any payment if their AGI exceeds $174,000
  • A family of four will not receive any payment if their AGI exceeds $198,000

You can find your 2019 AGI on line 8b of your Form 1040.
