If you're a non-filer and need to get your third stimulus check, here's what you need to do:   File a tax return: Even if you don't normally file taxes, you'll need to file a tax return to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit for the stimulus payment.  The IRS reminds taxpayers who haven't yet filed their 2021 tax returns that they may be eligible for a refund if they file and claim the Recovery Rebate Credit by the April 15, 2025, deadline.   Additionally, you can view the total amount of your third Economic Impact Payment through your IRS Online Account or Letter 6475. This information is needed to accurately calculate your 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit when filing your 2021 federal tax return.   You can file 2021 via TurboTax here.

Bonne chance pour obtenir de l'aide. J'ai un problème similaire sauf que la personne à la charge (personne aidée) est la mère de ma conjointe. Je ne suis pas capable de remplir l'annexe H avec ses informations. Pourtant, elle est bien entrée comme personne à charge dans ma déclaration...   Dans Easystep, ça indique le message suivant dans un encadré dans lequel je comprends qu'on devrait pouvoir trouver la personne à charge et la sélectionner.   Si vous ne voyez pas votre époux ou conjoint ou vos personnes à charge ici, vérifiez que vous avez indiqué qu'ils étaient handicapés et que vous avez entré les personnes à charge (autres que votre époux ou conjoint) dans la section Personnes à charge. Vous n'avez pas besoin d'indiquer que les personnes de plus de 70 ans sont handicapées (excluant votre conjoint). Vous n'avez pas besoin d'entrer les personnes autres que vos proches dans la section Personnes à charge. Vous pouvez les déclarer en tant que « Autre personne aidée admissible (sans lien de parenté) ». J'ai communiqué 3 fois avec le support pour me faire dire à chaque fois qu'une mise à jour allait régler le problème. Et bien, 45 jours plus tard et 3 ou 4 mises à jours, ça ne fonctionne toujours pas.

I just noticed that 3 people responded to my questions. Thanks to all. I attribute my follow up questions to convincing another person it was a legit thing to deduct and my own difficulty finding my way through TT. Each answer was good.

Please clarify your question by adding some additional information so we may better help you. Such as: What version of TurboTax are you using? What TurboTax screen are you on? What are you trying to do in TurboTax?  What ami are you trying to calculate? When you say TurboTax did it before, do you mean in another year?

I would suggest you go back to the interview questions for and look for the question on Foreign Financial Accounts to indicate YES. This appears at the end of the Income section, before Deductions & Credits.    If you're using TurboTax Online, clear your Cache and Cookies first.   Under Tax Tools > Tools in the left-side menu, choose 'Delete a Form' from the pop-up menu.  See if you have Form 8938 included in your return.     If so, again, under Tax Tools > Tools, choose 'View Tax Summary' from the pop-up menu.  Then back at the left-side menu, choose 'Preview My 1040' to scroll through your return to check your Schedule B.   You may not be required to file Form 8938.  Here's more info on Filing Form 8938.   @Priyu-ch               

Go back and edit your W-2; you will need to exit the review section.   Are boxes 19 and 20 blank?   You can leave boxes 18-20 all blank if there is no tax withheld, but if there is tax withheld in box 19, you will need entries in boxes 18 and 20.    To go back to your w-2, search for w-2 and use the jump to link.  Then click edit or the pencil icon next to the w-2 that has the error.  

You're welcome.  It makes sense, and yes, if you know certain things are consistent every month, you can use that method to figure them, with a slight change- figure based on months because the quarter 1 estimate is based on income earned from 1/1-3/31, while quarter 2 is based on income earned from 1/1-5/31, and quarter 3 is based on income earned from 1/1-8/31.     If their income varies, for example if they don't make consistent 401(k) withdrawals, you'll need to be precise and verify the dates they received their income.     Also, you'll be asked for their adjusted gross income for each period, so that will be the total of all the income that is reported on their 1040, line 11 (don't deduct the standard deduction).  You'll next be asked about the capital gain, if the home was the only capital gain, you'll not enter anything there, and the amount will be assigned to quarter 4.   You will not be asked to enter the standard deduction, it's automatically added to the penalty form (Form 2210)  page 3, line 7.
