Do I still qualify to receive the third stimulus rebate if my parents got it because I was a dependent in 2020, but in 2021 I cannot be claimed as their dependent?

My parents claimed me as a dependent in 2020, but cannot in 2021 because I am not a full time student any more and make over the allowed amount.  They said that they think they received the third $1400 stimulus payment for me because they got more than TurboTax said they should get, but now that I am not filing as a dependent for 2021, TurboTax says that because I did not receive a stimulus check I qualify for the recovery rebate.  Is this true or if I claim this rebate will this mess up my parents taxes for what they were already sent in stimulus payments?  I don't want to mess up my parents taxes, but I don't want to miss out on the rebate if I really do qualify.  How do I find out if I can claim this rebate?
