The first stimulus was $1200 PER spouse. So if they received the full amount, they would have received a total of $2400 for the first stimulus. So you may want to double check how much they received.

Perhaps it would help to review what is really happening:

The funds were paid out as Advanced payment against a projection. The projection used 2018 or 2019 tax returns. But 2020 is the Actuals. You use the 2020 return to reconcile what a person is entitled to, against what they got.
