You had to get the 1st and/or 2nd stimulus on a 2020 tax return by using the recovery rebate credit. There was nowhere to enter anything about the 3rd stimulus on a 2020 return but some people received it from the IRS after the IRS processed their 2020 return. If you did not receive the 3rd one you can get that one as a recovery rebate credit on a 2021 return.

Check your IRS account to see which stimulus checks the IRS shows that they already sent to you.

If you did not get the 2nd one and did not use the credit on your 2020 return then you will need to amend 2020 to get it. But it might have been added to your 2020 refund without you realizing it. Look at line 30 of your 2020 Form 1040. Is there an amount there?
