The first 2 stimulus payments go on your 2020 return even if you got the 2nd one in Jan-March 2021.  If you received a payment after March it was probably for the 3rd stimulus  (1,400 per person).  That will  go on your 2021 return next year.

We didn't receive any third stimulus. I assume I will be asked that in 2022 ( for 2021)?

@Whizkid151 If you do not receive the 3rd stimulus you will be asked about it on your 2021 return and may be able to get it as a credit, in much the same way as some people go the 1st and/or 2nd stimulus payments as a recovery credit on a 2020 return.

 The IRS is issuing 3rd stimulus checks on its own timetable.

You can use the IRS Get My Payment site to see what is expected for your 3rd stimulus check:
