Son and I both receive disability benefits. I did not receive any forms, trying to file him as a dependent for stimulus. I didn't receive the first payment for him either

How do I do this?

How old is your son?   He has to be 16 or younger as of 12/31/20 to qualify you for the payments.   If he is and no one else claimed him on a 2020 tax return, you can file a 2020 tax return and include him as a dependent.   You don't need to report your disability income if that is your only income.  

If you didn't receive the full amount for your first or second-round stimulus payments, we'll help you claim the Recovery Rebate Credit when you file your taxes this year.  Here’s how:

• Enter all of your federal return information as you would normally. During the Federal Review, we’ll check if you meet eligibility requirements for the stimulus payment. If you meet the requirements, you'll see a It looks like you qualified for the stimulus, did you get any payments? screen. We'll ask a few questions about any payments you've already received and then let you know if the Recovery Rebate Credit applies.
  • If you need to make any changes to your stimulus credit responses, search for stimulus and select the jump-to link at the top of the search results to return back to the section. Enter your updated info and Continue.

It’s important that you enter the correct amount of each stimulus payment you received. The first stimulus payments were made between April and September of last year, while the second round of payments was delivered during January and February.    

Eligibility rules for the Recovery Rebate Credit

Why am I not getting the Recovery Rebate Credit for my child or dependent?

Why isn't the stimulus question showing when I'm trying to claim my Recovery Rebate Credit?

He is 8 and his father doesn't claim him.

You just need to file a tax return using TurboTax and indicate that you support your son and answer the questions to see if he qualifies as your dependent.

You would be entitled to $1,200 of stimulus money for each taxpayer listed on your return plus $500 for each dependent under the age of 17 for the first round, and $600 for each person I just mentioned for the second round of stimulus payments.

When you prepared your tax return with TurboTax, you were asked to entered how much of the stimulus money you actually received. The balance  would be refunded to you. It is possible that you entered the wrong amount of money you received when you completed your tax return, and that would result in your refund being adjusted.

The only other likely possibility would be that a stimulus payment was sent to you that you haven't received yet or didn't receive. In that case, you will have to contact the IRS and inquire about your missing stimulus payments.
