Possibly. The third Credit, issued from Dec 2020 through March 2021, was based on Projected status. Just answer the interview questions accurately, and you'll get your $1400 if applicable.

Q. If I was claimed as a dependent last year (2020) but I'm not this year (2021), am I eligible for the recovery rebate credit?

A. Yes, most likely. As the other answer said, the $1400 payment was an advance on your 2021 tax refund. The person who claimed you as a dependent gets to get the $1400 they got.
