First Stimulus payment

We received our first stimulus payment based on our 2018 taxes in May of 2020; however, we had filed our 2019 taxes in February of 2020 but they were not processed until July of 2020.  Because our 2019 taxes had not been processed, the IRS based our stimulus payment on our 2018 income which was significantly higher because I worked two jobs for six months of 2018.  We were initially not concerned because we thought we would get a rebate on our taxes we are currently filing for 2020.  Instead, the Turbo Tax software appears to only look at your income for 2020 to determine rebates.  How can we rectify this situation and get the rebate we are due based on our 2019 income?
