Second Stimulus

My grandma received the first stimulus of $1200 but not the second of $600. When we claimed it on her SSA tax return it granted her $1800. How do we go about fixing it & only claiming the second stimulus?

Did you enter the 1200 she got? There will be a screen with 2 boxes for each round. If you didn't get one enter a 0 in the box.

When you go through the federal review tab it will ask how much you got if any. Or to enter your stimulus payment in TurboTax, type "stimulus" (without the quotes) in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to stimulus."

After you have entered your tax information and are ready for the Federal Review, it will be the first question.

If you are trying to trigger it, you can go to Other Situations, answer any questions and click Done. The next automatic selection is Federal Review and it will ask about payments received.

The Recovery rebate credit is on 1040 line 30. It either adds to your refund or reduced a tax due.

I didn’t see those options when filing. Is there a way that I can redo them? They’re in the pending status
