Did any turbotax filer get stimulus message "Not Available"? Does this mean I will have to wait and claim stimulus when I file my tax return?

I meet the eligibility requirements so why must I wait?

If Get My Payment shows "Payment Status #2 Not Available" you will not receive a second EIP.

The IRS advises people that if they don't receive their Economic Impact Payment, they should file their 2020 tax return electronically and claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on their tax return to get their payment and any refund as quickly as possible.

 

The above is an extract of the IRS Statement on the second stimulus check.
