Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

If I was a dependent in 2019 and didn't get the stimulus check in 2020. Since it is 2021 when I filed my taxes I thought I would get both of the last two stimulus checks?

I am no longer a depending as of 2021 and 2020..

The stimulus question will come up in the review section of TurboTax

It depends on the rest of your circumstances. To confirm you are no longer a dependent, see: Who can I claim as my dependent?

 

The form is actually before the Federal Review

But, to see it, you need to be at the end of Other Tax Situations, first. To get there in TurboTax, follow these steps:

  • In your return, click the Other Tax Situations tab toward the top of the page
  • Scroll down to the end and click Let's keep going
  • At Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount, click Continue
  • Be sure to report an amount for each of the stimulus payments as received. If the particular payment was not received at all, enter 0 and click Continue

To check other IRS Resources, see: Questions and Answers about the Second Economic Impact Payment which is still getting updates. 

 

To check your payment status with the IRS, go to: Get My Payment Link
