I need to file for my SECT Return I never received during the pandemic

I was self employed during the pandemic as a house cleaner, couldn’t work when the country shut down but never received the credits or money for SETC return how do I get it now?

You should have filed a 2021 tax return for your self-employment income.  The SECT can only be credited on the 2021 return, so if you filed a 2021 return you will have to amend the return that was filed to enter the credit.

 

See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a prior year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-already-filed/L4VjJ9BA2_US_en_US?uid=ld1n99kr
