I did not receive my second stimulus check until January 2021. Do I report it on the 2020 federal tax form?
The IRS issued the payment in December but due to the mix-up over deposits, I didn't actually get it until January 8th. Do I report it on the 2020 taxes or 2021?

You have to report your second stimulus check on your 2020 tax return even if you received it in January 2021.
Please read this IRS document for more information.
