Can I remove the amont in Item 30 of my 2021 1040-SR tax return?

If you have NOT e-filed yet you can change it. If you already e-filed then, no, you cannot make changes to a return that has already been accepted. If you already filed you just have to wait for the IRS to fix your mistake. By answering incorrectly about the stimulus amount you received you put an amount on line 30 of your Form 1040. The IRS checks that line. They know how much they sent to you. They will reduce your refund by that amount. This will delay your refund so expect a wait.
