I have joint custody and claimed 1/3 last year. Am I owed stimulus money for the other 2 and if so how do I include that info here? My ex earns too much to get the money

Recovery Rebate Credit: I have joint custody of my kids but we take turn claiming them. I claimed one of three last year so both Covid stimulus payments were for me and one dependent. My ex earns too much to get any stimulus money but claimed the other two kids last year. From what I’m reading I should be able to get the both stimulus checks for my other two dependents. $500 each for the first one and $600 each for the second totaling $2200. It doesn’t seem like turbo tax will allow me to input that in any way. Am I correct about being owed the money and if so how do I include that info here? Thanks!

 

Edit: I have confirmed that this is correct and even if he didn’t earn so much we could both get the money for all three kids. I’m just trying to figure out how to claim it here or if I have to switch to hr block since they seem to have this updated already.
