    Don't worry about the 3rd one now.  To get the 1st and 2ne Stimulus you have to file a 2020 return.  

     

    You need to file a 2020 return to claim the missing Stimulus payments. It's too late to be based on 2019 or 2018 returns. If you don't need to file a 2020 return then enter $1 of fake interest to efile.

     

    See IRS Question Q A2 here
    https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/recovery-rebate-credit-topic-a-claiming-the-recovery-rebate-credit-if-you-arent-required-to-file-a-tax-return

     

    And see Question Q A4 says your return has to be complete and correct and include all your income and dependents, etc.
