Primary EIP shows correct amount $1700. Secondary shows $1700, but I received $1200 that round. Do I need to file an amended return?
Amend your return if you did not receive the entirety of EIP1 or EIP2 to which you are entitled.
@sweetweedkelly $1700 is an incorrect amount for the round 2 stimulus, unless it was reduced because your gross income was more than $75,000 (single) or $150,000 (married filing jointly). Round 2 was $600 for each adult and $600 for each dependent, so the correct amount might’ve been $1800 if you are married and have one child, or if you are single and have two children, but $1700 is an incorrect amount.
$1700 would be the correct amount for round 1 if you were single or head of household and had one dependent, in which case, your correct round 2 amount would be $1200.
Regardless of these assumptions, if the IRS indicated that they sent more money than you received, you will have to initiate a trace of the payment at the IRS website. You can’t obtain those funds by amending your tax return, because the IRS believes they were already paid.
