If American Rescue Plan makes $10,200 of UEC in 2020 tax free, and I get a new 1099-G, how do I amend return in TurboTax?

How did u calculate what she was owed after exclusion?

[rjs]

@Kbleaed   It's not clear what you are replying to, what calculation you are referring to, or who "she" is. This is a very long thread with several different people posting, and it's several months old. Please post a separate new question of your own, not a reply to an existing thread, and give all the details of your particular situation in the new question. Do not post any more replies here in this thread.

The correction is on mine also but how do you find out what the new refund will be

[Critter-3]

Hopefully you kept  a copy of the original return so you can do the simple math ... new refund - old refund = difference.   If not when the IRS sends the original refund you will have what you need to figure out the extra refund.  The refund should come in 2 pieces with a bit of interest added in because the refunds were delayed in processing.

You will get a federal income tax refund for the unemployment exclusion if all of the following are true.

• You reported unemployment benefits as income on your 2020 tax return, on Schedule 1 line 7.
• You did not get the unemployment exclusion on the 2020 tax return that you filed. The unemployment exclusion would appear as a negative amount on Schedule 1 line 8, with the abbreviation UCE on the dotted line to the left of the amount.
• Your tax on Form 1040 line 16 is not zero.
• Your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), not including unemployment, is less than $150,000. In other words, Form 1040 line 11 minus Schedule 1 line 7 is less than $150,000.

If all four of those conditions are true, The IRS will recalculate your tax return and send you the refund. It might be a couple of months before you get it. For more information see the following IRS announcements and FAQ.

2020 Unemployment Compensation Exclusion FAQs

The IRS is recalculating refunds for people whose AGI is $150K or below and who filed before the tax law that changed the amount of unemployment that is taxable on a federal return became effective.   

The IRS began to send out the additional refund checks for tax withheld from unemployment in May.  The refunds are being sent out in batches—starting with the simplest returns first.   If you are eligible for the extra refund for federal tax that was withheld from your unemployment the IRS will be sending you an additional refund sometime during the next several months.  TurboTax cannot track or predict when it will be sent.  The IRS has not provided a way for you to track it, so all you can do is wait for the refund to arrive.

I noticed error on my 2020 Return that was filed last April. 

Tried to reopen that return, but keeps kicking into 2021 Turbotax.

How do I reopen 2020 Return to file 1040-X?
