I did not claim my parent last year. She received her own $1400.00 by being on social security. However; I'm claiming her this year and Turbo is asking me the amount of stimulus I received. I only received $2800 on my letter for me and my daughter. Turbo is adding $1400 for my parent this year (2021). Is that correct, she received hers last year

Assuming that you are eligible to claim her, you are entitled to the $1400 stimulus in 2021 even though she got it in 2020.

Yes I’m eligible. I was just unsure since she already received. Didn’t want to be delayed because of error. Thank you!

You are very welcome.

Yes, TurboTax is going to calculate based on the number of individuals on the return. You should use the total of $2,800 plus the $1,400 or $4,200 as the full amount you received.
