The IRS has not given notice of how this will be handled. Here is some information about this. You will get you money back, just hang tight until the details are worked out for this huge deal.

No, do not file and deduct your unemployment benefits. The bill was signed into law today, and the IRS need some time to get the details and forms ready for use. 

 

Here is a link to the latest information on the third stimulus.
