2021 stimulus

[wendylfyend]

the 2021 stimulus of $520 was received and entered on my 2023 returns in TurboTax so why was I told (by full service advice) to enter it on my 2024 return; and because I left blanks the question, it  no longer appears in Final review so how can it be entered now?

The stimulus payments were only entered on returns in 2021 and 2022.  The entry was to reconcile whether or not additional credits were owed to the taxpayer. 

There is no need to report payments received in 2023 or 2024, therefore there is nowhere to enter this data.

Yes, since I did bot receive a 1099-MISC in 2024, I should not make any entry when the question came up.  The advice from this forum is correct according to another tax-assist person I talked with after my post. thank you community.
