It depends.
Did you file an actual tax return in 2021 for your 2020 income tax return? If you did not receive a portion of either of the first two stimulus payments, you will need to file an actual income tax return for 2020 to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit. This is the only way to get a credit for any of the possible stimulus payments you should have received but never did.
Please see the attached link for more information on who can claim the credit.
