The Recovery Rebate Credit is based on the information in your 2020 tax return. The stimulus payments in rounds one and two were advances on that credit. You are eligible for the Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2020 return. If you received any stimulus payments in rounds one and/or two your credit is reduced by that amount you already received.
As an adult dependent you would not have received a stimulus payment. If you have not received any stimulus payments, then the entire amount you are eligible for is added to your tax return as a refundable credit on line 30 of your Form 1040.
To recap the total Recovery Rebate Credit eligibility amounts:
Round one: $1200 (2400 if filed jointly) plus $500 per qualified dependent child age 16 or under
Round two: $600 (1200 if filed jointly) plus $600 per qualified dependent child age 16 or under
