I see in some other post that there is supposed to be a way to enter what you got or didn't get due to filing with turbotax last year. The steps below do not work, there is no prompt for that info or any way to get to it. The jump to Stimulus page off search just brings up a Federal review which runs and says everything is complete and trys to go on to making me pay for Max and then finish paying and file. How is the page actually found since the below does not work??
If you have not received your second stimulus check, you will receive your payment in the form of a Rebate Recovery Credit on line 30 of your 2020 Federal tax return when you file.
TurboTax will compare your one or two stimulus payment amounts to the computations within TurboTax. The computations within TurboTax are based upon the information that you have entered into the tax software. If you are due an additional amount, it will be issued as a Rebate Recovery Credit (RRC) on line 30 of the 2020 1040 tax return.
If you have e-filed your 2020 Federal tax return and the tax return is accepted by the IRS, you will have to amend your 2020 Federal tax return and correct the entries and calculations to receive the Rebate Recovery Credit.
If you have e-filed your 2020 Federal tax return and the tax return is rejected by the IRS, you will have to amend your 2020 Federal tax return and correct the entries and calculations to receive the Rebate Recovery Credit as well as correct the entries that generated the rejection.
In TurboTax Online, you are prompted to input stimulus check 1 and stimulus check 2 information under Review down the left hand side of the screen.
You can access your stimulus check choices by following these steps:

The IRS Recovery Rebate Credit is entered by using the steps below (online or desktop). The credit is reconciled on the 2020 return and will increase your refund or reduce your amount owed, if applicable, for any payments not yet received.
That does not exist/work in TurboTax Online. It just says all checks out on the review. That page never shows up and the status of the entry is unable to be verified.
In TurboTax online click the "Federal Review" tab at the top of the page. That should take you directly to the stimulus questions.
There you will enter any amounts you have already received. The amounts entered will update the Recovery Rebate Credit on your tax return. If the amount entered is the same as or greater than the amount you are eligible for, your refund amount will not change.
However, you will get notification that the calculations were done and that you have received the correct amount.
Going to Review I get this page:
So I click Check My Info, it thinks for a while and flips thru the personal info entered for it's "checking", then drops at this page:

That's a repaste of what I put in there and does not exist in TTax online where it says it should.
It should still be in Federal Review. If you are not seeing the page, your income may be too high for the Rebate Recovery Credit.
We’ve added a jump to.
If you are not seeing the page, your income may be too high to qualify for the Rebate Recovery Credit.
Generally, if you were a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien in 2020, were not a dependent of another taxpayer and have a Social Security number that is valid for employment, you are eligible for the Recovery Rebate Credit. Your credit amount will be reduced if your adjusted gross income (AGI) is more than:
Your payment will be reduced by 5% of the amount by which your AGI exceeds the applicable threshold above.
Should have gotten it/some from the calculators, got the first. The jump to stimulus just kicks off a review which completes without questioning or way to know what settings it has used.
To troubleshoot your issue we need more information:
Try the following:
Deluxe. Not sure if a schedule C exists or not or what exactly those are for, turbotax takes care of that for me. Looks like a business loss which I don't have, so I'd venture no schedule c
The stimulus payment section is at the end of Other Tax Situations and the beginning of the Federal Review, but you may not see that by navigating directly to that section.
The steps listed are after you are already in the right section.

Does not work using the jump to Stimulus. Screenshots of each view as it goes. Click the jump link and it's DIRECT to the check federal return page shown. No stimulus. It shows no info in the recap about stimulus either.
If TurboTax is not showing the stimulus page it means you are not qualified. Either your income is too high or you are being claimed as a dependent.
I got stimulus money, some, and have the values from the IRS site to enter in there. Absolutely not a dependent to anyone else.
