I have already filed my taxes for 2020. Last week I received back-dated unemployment checks for 2020, however the issued date on the checks are all 3/16/2021 and i physically received them 3/21/2021. Will i have to ammend my 2020 tax return or do I include them on my next years return?

No, you do not need to amend your 2020 tax return. These checks will be reported on your 2021 1099-G form and you will report them on your 2021 tax return.
