If you are a nonresident alien, you are not eligible for the stimulus payments.

 

If you are a resident alien, you are eligible for the stimulus payments.

 

If you have not received the first and second stimulus payments, you'll need to claim them as the Recovery Rebate credit.

 

In TurboTax Online, to claim the Recovery Rebate credit please do the following:

  1. Sign into your account and continue from where you left off
  2. Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then on Federal Review on the top of the screen
  3. On the next page titled Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount, click on Continue
  4. Follow the interview
  5. TurboTax will determine whether you are entitled to any additional stimulus
  6. Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of your form 1040.
