In TurboTax Deluxe for the CD/Download, to return to the stimulus payment section, if
Your adjusted gross income (AGI) must be below,
If your income is greater than these amounts, the credit is reduced by $5 for each $100 above the $75,000/$112,500/$150,000 thresholds.
To enter the Recovery Rebate Credit details if all else fails, change to Forms mode and follow these steps:
@MIkeOprysko did you ever get this resolved? I have the same issue, but I waited until the last minute....
Go to the search bar up top and type in stimulus, hit enter and then use the Jump to stimulus link to be taken to the questions. It works in the desktop version as well.
If the search does not take you there, it means either:
I agree! This crummy program has no search mode.

Of course the TurboTax program has a Search mode on both the online editions and the desktop editions.
Enter stimulus in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to stimulus
There is no "Jump to" option on my drop-down menu.

There is if you enter the word stimulus in the Search box -
After you type in the word stimulus you need to hit the return or enter key on a keyboard. At least on my Windows computer. Don't know how on a mobile device.
I'm on the turbotax desktop app. What if after searching the "stimulus", and "jump to", it takes me to the Federal Review tab, but I don't see anything related to the stimulus check? ( I did received the check for the 3rd round.
To enter the correct 3rd stimulus payment received in 2021:
If you do see this screen below when click on Federal Review, one reason could be that your AGI is over the limit and you do not qualify for the stimulus. Here is the income limit (fully phaseout amount) for 2021:

Hey, thanks for the reply.
I'm on the TurboTax desktop app so the layout looks different than yours (please refer to the image I posted earlier)------------There is not "Let's double-check the amount you received".
I'm single and my 2021 AGI is above $80000, I guess that is the reason why TurboTax don't show me any option regarding inputting stimulus payment. However, when the 3rd stimulus payment issued on March 2021, it was based on my 2020 AGI which is lower than $8000. In this case, how can I put in the payment about into TurboTax desktop app?
TurboTax Desktop should have the same screen if you qualify for the stimulus based on your 2021 AGI.
If you received the 3rd stimulus payment based on your 2020 income, and 2021 income disqualifies you for the payment, you don't need to enter it in your tax return. The stimulus payment is not included in your 2021 income and you are not required to pay it back.

Thanks for the explanation!
Hello,
I am trying to figure this out as well but never get asked about any stimulus payment.
When I click "Federal Review" my next screen says:
I am using TurboTax online and when I click continue on the screen where I see this message it just says "Checking your return" and then says everything looks good.
There is no asking for stimulus information and I cannot find anywhere to put it, however I have the letter 6475 from the IRS.
Please advise where to report this information
