Question

I accidentally put that I did not receive a stimulus in 2020 because I thought it was referring to the second stimulus. I don't want to get into trouble. What should I do?

I received the first stimulus but not the second and I'm a non-filer.

did you complete the 2020 tax filing?

 

if no, then go to the Federal Review section and correct the stimulus payments. 

 

are you using the 'free' edition? you shouldn't have to pay for this, assuming you are still a non-filer.

I did complete the 2020 filing. I didn't realize my mistake until afterward. I'm so worried I'm going to get into trouble. I just wanted to claim the second stimulus that I did not receive.

so not sure I am tracking... 

 

there were two boxes to place your stimulus payments

 

what did you put in the 1st box? what did you put in the 2nd box? 

 

how much did you ACTUALLY  receive from the 1st stimulus and how much did you receive on the 2nd stimulus (zero, right?)
