If you are referring to the second payment it has not yet been approved yet.

 

If you are referring to the first payment ... if you do not get it by the time you can file your return later next month then you will get the credit on the 2020 return.

If you didn't get the first Stimulus Check.......

The Stimulus Check is really based on your 2020 return we are filing in 2021.  So any amount you already got will be reconciled on your 2020 return line 30.  If you didn't get a Stimulus Check (and qualify) or you qualify for more it will be added to your 2020 return.  But the good news is if they paid you too much they won't take it back.

 

When you go through the federal review tab it will ask how much you got if any.  Or to enter your stimulus payment in TurboTax, type "stimulus" (without the quotes) in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to stimulus."
