Deductions & credits

There is an issue with how turbo tax is working related to the stimulus tax credit.  I did not receive my 1st payment but did get my 2nd.  I was told by the IRS, and confirmed via turbo tax's info, that I would be able to adjust my return to claim a credit for that missed payment as I was eligible.  However, I did not get that prompt when I was completing my taxes. 

 

After fiddling around I was able to figure out that the problem is that turbo tax is looking at my 2020 income to see if I qualify instead of 2019.  I cannot see how to manually override this or even enter the proper info into line 30 on the 1040.

 

I cannot find anywhere that says that I am no longer eligible because I ended up with higher income in 2020.
