You'll need to amend your return to include the Recovery Rebate Credit.
-
To avoid unnecessary delays, do not amend until your original return has been fully processed.
-
You can e-file your 2020 amended federal tax return, but most states require amendments to be printed and filed by mail.

Allow 16 weeks for processing.
See this TurboTax FAQ for help with amending.
