There is no federal stimulus for tax year 2023. There is no place on a 2023 tax form to enter anything at all about stimulus checks. The federal stimulus checks were sent out for tax years 2020 and 2021. Did you file tax returns for 2020 and/or 2021? If not, and if you were eligible in 2020 and/or 2021 to get stimulus checks then the only way to get it now is to file tax returns for 2020 and 2021. If you could be claimed as someone else's dependent for 2020--you were not eligible for a stimulus check then and would not be eligible now even if you file. The same would hold true for tax year 2021.
Your eligibility for the stimulus money—-now available as the recovery rebate credit— will depend on your circumstances in 2020 and/or 2021. If you could be claimed as someone else’s dependent in 2020 or 2021, you are not eligible for the recovery rebate credit now.
The first stimulus checks were issued in 2020; the first one was for $1200 for adults and $500 for qualified children dependents under the age of 17. The IRS was in a hurry to send out those checks so they sometimes used information from your 2019 return to send out the check. Or sometimes they sent it after you filed your 2020 return.
The second stimulus was sent in late 2020 or early 2021; that one was $600 per adult and $600 for qualified children dependents under the age of 17.
The 3rd stimulus check was $1400 for adults and $1400 for any dependent you claimed, and was sent out in 2021.
If you did not receive the first or second stimulus check, you can get it by filing a 2020 return and use the recovery rebate credit in Federal Review. The stimulus amount will show up on line 30 of the Form 1040.
If you did not receive the 3rd stimulus check, you can get it by filing a 2021 tax return and use the recovery rebate credit in Federal Review. The stimulus amount will show up on line 30 of the Form 1040.
Check your own bank account for deposits of the stimulus checks, and check your online account with the IRS to see what the IRS shows they sent to you.
Try checking your online account with the IRS (and if you filed a joint return—check for BOTH of you)

If you need to trace a payment that the IRS says has been issued to you, mail or fax a completed IRS Form 3911, Taxpayer Statement Regarding Refund.
