Where in turbotax can i submit I did not receive the 2nd round of stimulus payments? or is that something I will have to apply for in 2021 since technically the payment was made Jan 2021 even though some of us did not receive it.

The IRS will continue to make stimulus payments until February 5. Continue to check the IRS Get My Payment website to see if a bank deposit is made or if a check or debit card is issued. After February 12, if these is still no payment made then follow these steps to add the payment to your 2020 tax refund.

At the top of your tax return select Federal Review

That will take you to this screen where it asks if you have already received your stimulus payments. If you received the first or second payment already, then select Yes and fill in the information. If you did not receive any payment select No. If you received the first payment only, fill in that amount and put zero (0) for the second payment.

When the screen is correct, you refund will be adjusted for the amount of stimulus payment that will be added to your 2020 refund.

I suspect you can't claim it for this year taxes and it is next, but would like someone smarter than me to confirm

Thank you for answering the question. However I don't have that screen. What I see is this.

We got a single payment

We each got a separate payment

We didn't get a payment.

So not sure why the turbotax is not updated to reflect what yours is showing.

I forgot that I received the $1200 covid-19 stimulus payment and I did not receive a notice that I was paid until today 3/27/2021. As a result I filed my taxes as if I did not receive the payment. How do I make this correction to my filed tax return?

The IRS will make the correction for you. If the correction will result in tax due, you'll need to make that payment.

The IRS will send you an explanation letter.

Where can I enter not receiving 2nd stimulus

To enter the information needed to calculate the Recovery Rebate Credit on you return, please follow the steps below:

With your return open, search for stimulus with the magnifying glass tool on the top of the page.
Select the Jump to Stimulus in the search results to directly go to correct TurboTax page.
You will come to a page titled Let's double-check the amount you received and it will list the first-round and second-round payments based on your 2020 return.
Answer No for the question, Is this what you received?
Enter the amounts of the first and second round stimulus payments you received ($0 for stimulus 2).
