Question

I received the 1200.00 dollar stimulus and mistakenly put that I didn't. How can I correct this? Taxes have been sent.

Since you have filed your returns, you must wait for them to be processed.  If your returns should get rejected for some reason, they will be sent back to you.  You can make any and all corrections before resubmitting.   

 

The IRS has not published guidance on how they will handle misstatements of stimulus payments on the 2020 tax returns; they may catch the errors and notify you of corrections.  Due to the timing of the stimulus payments and tax filing season this experience is common.  

 

Here is a link to monitor for updates on the Recovery Rebate Credit.
