Fill out your taxes with your income and expenses, run a review and if your income qualifies you for the rebate, TurboTax will have a screen asking if you received it.

The questions for the recovery rebate credit appear in Federal Review. If you already received the 3rd EIP payment last year you are not eligible to get it twice. So you need to check your bank account for deposits of $1400 per person made after mid-March, check your online account with the IRS to see if the IRS says you got the payment, and see if the IRS sent you letter 6475.

As @xmasbaby0 said above, you determine your Recovery rebate credit in the Federal review section of TurboTax.

The detailed steps are as follows:

In TurboTax Online, to claim the Recovery Rebate credit please do the following:

Sign into your account and continue from where you left off
Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then on Federal Review on the top of the screen
On the next page titled Did you [or your spouse] get a third stimulus payment?, answer Yes or No
Follow the interview and answer all questions
TurboTax will determine whether you are entitled to any additional stimulus
Any stimulus amount remaining due to you will show as a credit on line 30 of your form 1040.

Please read this TurboTax Help topic for more information on the third stimulus.
