The Third Stimulus

So this was my first time filing my tax, I'm a 20 year old first time student who paid out of pocket for school all year without a job (that was insanely hard). Obviously I got a pretty rewarding refund, however, I also qualified for the stimulus check. 

 

I got my refund today actually, and I was slightly confused on whether or not the third stimulus is included in my tax refund or I have to wait for it separately? Should I be checking the "Get My Payment" tool? or have I already gotten it?

The 3rd stimulus is separate from your 2020 tax refund.   

 

You can use the IRS Get My Payment site to see what is expected for your 3rd stimulus check:
