Question

How do I amend a 2021 1040 tax return if I incorrectly entered my refundable credit on Recovery rebate (stimulus check)? This is under payments Line 15.

I mistakenly entered that I did not received the third stimulus check but I just noticed that I actually did. It was deposited directly into my bank account and I did not noticed earlier. I tried to file 1040X but cannot find where to correct this info.

You don't need to amend for that.  The IRS knows how much they sent you and will automatically adjust your return for you.
