Unfortunately, now that the new package has been signed, IRS now has to get busy and change the IRC tax code to adapt to what it contained.

 

TurboTax must wait until IRS changes are made public until they can make changes to the software.

 

Here are some links with some additional information for you:

How will the third stimulus package affect me

 

This means if you qualify for a third stimulus check, you could get up to $1,400 for each taxpayer in your household plus $1,400 for each dependent.

  • Families earning less than $150,000 a year and individuals earning less than $75,000 a year should get the full $1,400 per person.
  • Families earning up to $160,000 per year and individuals earning up to $80,000 per year will receive prorated amounts.
  • One notable difference from the first two stimulus is that you will receive stimulus payments for all your dependents, including adult dependents and college students.

Do I need to apply to get a stimulus check?

 

You don’t need to do anything to get your stimulus check.

 

The IRS will determine eligibility based on your last tax return (either 2019 or 2020) and will likely send your payment to the bank account where your tax refund was deposited.

 

If you haven’t filed your 2020 return yet, you can do that now to give your most recent information to the IRS, including bank account or address information to help ensure your stimulus check goes to the right place.

 

When will I get my stimulus check?

 

The IRS has not announced a date yet, but we will provide an update here as soon as it becomes available.
