Still not resolved. Tying STIMULUS into the search box brings up the jump to link, but the link goes to State Taxes. Washington has no State Tax. Link is a dead end. ?

A response suggested that I delete history and cookies in my browser.  Tried that and tried another browser.  No luck.

Are you trying to enter the amount of stimulus you received in 2021?   Go to the Federal Review section and enter it for the recovery rebate credit.   Did you get an IRS letter 6475?  You have to enter the amount you received.

Thanks for the reply, but that is the problem.  I can’t get to that screen.

If TurboTax is not asking about the stimulus, it has determined that you are not eligible. To be eligible, you:

  • Must be a US citizen or US resident alien
  • Have a valid Social Security number, not an ITIN
  • Can’t be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s 2021 tax return
  • Your income was below:
    • $160,000 if married and filing a joint return
    • $160,000 if filing as a Qualifying Widow or Widower
    • $120,000 if filing as Head of Household
    • $80,000 for any other filing status

If it sounds like you should qualify, then continue through your federal return. During the Federal Review, if you meet the requirements, you'll see the Did you get a third stimulus? screen.

Answer a few questions about any payments you've already received and then TurboTax will calculate if you are due the Recovery Rebate Credit.
