Why can I not find line 35a (Needed to track stimulus) on my 2019 returns? I have a regular 1040.

not following your thought process - can you explain some more? 

you get $600 for each person listed on the 2019 return at the top of the first page plus $600 for each dependent (if the child tax credit if checked over to the right) and then it is reduced if you income is too high.....

is it possible your are looking for 'adjusted gross income' or AGI which is line 8b to use at the IRS website?????

A 2019 Form 1040 does not even have a line 35..  What are you looking for?

If you didn't get the Stimulus Check you can get it on your 2020 return line 30.  Is that what you are think of?

The first Stimulus Check is really based on your 2020 return we are filing in 2021.  So any amount you already got will be reconciled on your 2020 return line 30.  If you didn't get a Stimulus Check (and qualify) or you qualify for more it will be added to your 2020 return.  But the good news is if they paid you too much they won't take it back.

I think the second one will be on your tax return also.  They are still working on updating the program for it.

When you go through the federal review tab it will ask how much you got if any.  Or to enter your stimulus payment in TurboTax, type "stimulus" (without the quotes) in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to stimulus."
