Hi I’ve been in SSI. For about 15 years due to heart and kidney transplants. Everyone I spoke with that are on SSI. Got the 1200 and then the others for stimulus during covid and others. I receive $741.63 a month and can’t afford to pay someone to help me .. any advice would be appreciated.

Oh dear----anyone on Social Security or SSI should have received all of those payments automatically back when they were issued for 2020 and 2021. It is now too late to get the 1st one for $1200 or the 2nd stimulus of $600, but it is not too late to get the 3rd one for $1400 if you file a 2021 return before April 15, 2025. You can prepare it by hand on the paper form and mail it in. Did anyone claim you as a dependent for 2020 or 2021? If someone else claimed you as a dependent that would explain why you did not get the payments. The payments would have gone to whoever claimed you.
To file a 2021 return:
2021
You will want to make sure you put $1400 on line 30 for the recovery rebate credit.
