Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I need someone to clarify something for me. If we do not get our portion of the stimulus payment then someone mentioned we would have to claim it on next years tax return. However, if that causes us to get a refund and we are still filing married jointly, won't 1/2 of that be taken??? How is that fair? So my 1450 will be halved into $725 because it comes back to us as a refund or what? I am so confused at this point as to how we are ever going to get our portion.
