Yes, if you received a stimulus payment, you would want to indicate that.

The stimulus payment is used in computing the Recovery Rebate Credit, line 30 on Form 1040.

 

See Instructions for Form 1040, line 30 and the schedule that goes with it.

ONLY the third stimulus is mentioned in the 2021 return interview (it was $1400 per person listed on the 2020 return)  ... the $1800 refund you got on the 2020 tax return refund is NOT reported as income on the 2021 return.
