I have filed taxes already, but now this bill has passed $10,200 of my unemployment last year is now tax free. How am I supposed to get that taxed money back?

Will I need to amend my taxes or will the IRS just issue a return in overpayment

The IRS has not given notice of how this will be handled. Here is some information about this. You will get you money back, just hang tight until the details are worked out for this huge deal.

No, do not file and deduct your unemployment benefits. The bill was signed into law today, and the IRS need some time to get the details and forms ready for use. 

 

Here is a link to the latest information on the third stimulus.
