I have already filed my 2021 taxes but just discovered that I reported that I did not receive the full amount of the Economic Stimulus payment in 2021. I know how to file an amended return but I cannot find anywhere that I am given the opportunity to correct the Economic Stimulus Payment amount.

No you don't need to amend for that. The IRS will automatically check that and adjust it. They know how much they sent you. They will reduce your refund or send you a bill.

Thanks. I need to refile for another reason so I'm concerned they will bill me twice, once for the orignal filing and once for the amended filing.

The question comes up just before the end of the return. Click on Federal Review in the upper right corner, the first question will be confirming the third stimulus payment.
