$500 child tax credit and the $500 credit for the Stimulus payment

When I filled out the forms to file my taxes I was told that I could no longer get the $500 deduction for my son. Now I understand that I should be able to get $500 for the stimulus payment, but I have to fill out a form, which I cannot find anywhere. My son is 20 years old and suffers from mental illness, so far he has not been able to work' and I am supporting him 100%. He is being seen by Psychiatrists and psychologists. What do I do and where can I find the forms necessary? I did'nt get the deduction on my taxes. What is the difference between the stimulus package and the tax deduction?
