Recovery Rebate Credit - Filing Jointly, Wife check RECEIVED- Husband check NOT

How do I claim the RRC for $600 when filing jointly and my wife HAS received her check and I HAVE NOT?

THE IRS site says it has no info for my SS#. I DID receive the first stimulus check.

Recovery Rebate Credit - Filing Jointly, Wife check RECEIVED- Husband check NOT

TurboTax will calculate your Recover Rebate based on the information that you provide under the stimulus screen.

To include your stimulus payments on your tax return:

  1. Login your TurboTax.
  2. With your return open, search for the term stimulus.
  3. Select Jump to link.
  4. Under the combined total first-round stimulus payment enter the combined amount you both received.
  5. Under the combined total second-round stimulus payment, enter the combined amount you both received, since your spouse only received hers, enter that amount.
  6. Click on Continue
  7. The next screen will give you the total credit that is due you, based on your income eligibility.
  8. If you are eligible to receive the rebate, you will notice that your federal refund will increase by that credit, unless you have balance due, then the amount owed will decrease by your credit.
