@karlam30 Once you file a tax return and it has been accepted, there is nothing TurboTax can do for you. You used do-it-yourself tax software. TurboTax cannot legally intercede with the IRS for you--however much you would like that or want that,. TurboTax receives no information from the IRS after you file. If the IRS lost your return during the pandemic, that is an IRS problem. You can file it by printing it, signing it in ink and mailing it now. But mailed returns take a long time to be processed.
You can get the stimulus money by using the recovery rebate credit on your 2020 tax return. The stimulus money will become part of your 2020 refund.
The stimulus check is an advance on a credit you can receive on your 2020 tax return. If something went wrong or you did not get the stimulus check in 2020, you can get it when you file your 2020 return in early 2021
The Recovery Rebate Credit will be found in the Federal Review section, If you are eligible it will end up on line 30 of your 2020 Form 1040.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
