Recieving the 3rd stimulus

Hey all, 

 

I was claimed as a dependent on my parent's tax return in 2019. I graduated this past year and filed my taxes as a dependent. I saw the option to input how much I've received from the 1st and 2nd stimulus; however, I didn't see a box or option for the 3rd one. How would I go on about receiving that? I assume the issue would be due to people still waiting on their checks - right?

The 2020 return is using the recover rebate credit to claim any missing payments for the first and/or second stimulus payments. 

 

The third payment is being made BASED on your 2020 return, but independent of it. 

There is no information regarding the third stimulus on the 2020 return.
