I have yet to receive any of my stimulus money; can I still claim it on this year's tax return?

You cannot use the tax year 2023 tax return for a stimulus payment.  If you did not receive any of the stimulus payments then you will have to amend both the 2020 and 2021 tax returns that you filed.  Complete the Recovery Rebate Credit section on the amended returns and mail the amended returns to the IRS.  Expect the IRS to take at a minimum 5 months to process the amended returns.

This all assumes you were not dependent being claimed on any 2020 and 2021 returns, because dependents were not eligible for the stimulus.

Also check your Tax Account on the IRS website to see if the payments were already sent to you - https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account
