Now that the first $10,000 of unemployment is tax free how do I claim that money along with the third stimulus payment if I already filed and got skipped on stimulus?

They skipped me for stimulus dispersement because they are looking at my 2019 return. I was able to claim first two stimulus payments using turbotax. How do I claim the 3rd if they skipped me again? I would also like to know how we go about claiming the extra money granted by the bill making unemployment tax free now. Thank you!

Please wait a bit longer, as TT is waiting for guidance from the IRS.  As for Stimulus #3, the IRS sends this automatically (and separately) if you qualify based on your most recent tax filing.

Unfortunately they skipped me again on stimulus for the most recent dispersement because they based my qualification on my 2019 return as opposed to my most recent tax filing. Is there a way to claim the 3rd stimulus as a tax credit given this situation?
