Received $1400 stimulus in March. Am I eligible for more? Tax return is confusing.

If you already received your $1,400 last spring, there is nothing else left for you to claim. If your return added another payment, it is because you did not confirm that you received the $1,400. If you file your refund claiming the 3rd stimulus payment again, your refund will be delayed because of this mismatch. 

 

To confirm that you received the $1,400:

Follow these steps to claim the 3rd stimulus payment:

  1. Open or continue your return
  2. After entering your income information, click on the Federal Review tab
  3. If you qualify for the 3rd stimulus payment, you should see the screen that says Let's double-check the amount you received
  4. If you file as single, and you qualify for $1,400, and you already received it in 2021, select Yes and Continue
  5. The recovery rebate credit is reported on Line 30 of Form 1040
  6. Check to see if Line 30 is zero:
    • Go to Tax Tools >> Tools to open the Tools Center
    • Click on Review Tax Summary
    • Click on Preview my 1040 and scroll down to line 30.
