Ah, I completely misunderstood (obviously). I suspect that there will be a way to claim the third payment before waiting until next year. I am not sure if they will add it to this year's return and folks can amend or if they will open up a portal, push another round of payments later or what, but I have to imagine that they will come up with some sort of plan.
I know a lot of folks filed when this was brewing hoping to be in the system before they started sending out payments and then they were out the door in a flash. I can't imagine this administration leaving that in limbo, honestly, but I could be wrong.
