Question

I filed my 2019 return with Turbo Tax. I thought everything was fine. I found out it was rejected in Jan. I then mail my return. But I never received my $600 stimulus.

How do I know if my return was accepted or if I will receive the stimulus payments?  I don't know what to do. Thank you

The stimulus was an advance and is based on the 2020 tax return. File your 2020 tax return now to receive all of your stimulus.

 

You have not lost your stimulus money. The Recovery Rebate Credit will cover both the first and second stimulus payments. This will determine the full amount of potential refund you are entitled to based on income and eligible dependents, and will be part of the final combined refund on your return, if applicable.

 

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 - correct the payments if necessary, enter zero if you have not received anything
  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.

Get My Payment - Select the button Get My Payment to see if your information is current based on the payments you did receive.
