The IRS is mailing and depositing. The IRS does not open to accept tax returns until February 12 so you have time to receive your stimulus before you file.

Please wait until you are certain there is no second payment, about February 12, then you can follow these steps, if necessary.

After you have entered your tax information and are ready for the Federal Review, stimulus will be the first question.
If you are trying to trigger it:
1. go to Other Situations
2. click Done.
3. The next question will ask about payments received.
The program will determine the missing amount and add it to your refund.

If you do not receive your second stimulus payment you start by checking so see if the IRS has processed a payment for you.

Go to IRS Get My Payment and put in your information.

If it indicates that a check or debit card has been mailed to you, then continue to watch your mail.

If you do not receive a second payment then you will file for the payment on your 2020 taxes.

Since your taxes are pending, you will have to wait to see whether the IRS accepts your tax return. They will start accepting returns on February 12, 2021.

If your return is rejected, then you can edit your return and claim the Recovery Rebate Credit

If your return is accepted, then you will wait until the IRS has processed your return and then file an amendment to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit.

The quickest way to get to the Recovery Rebate Credit on your return is to click Federal Review at the top of your online TurboTax screen
