I received both stimulus but only the $1200 and $600. I have been claiming my daughter on my taxes since 2018. When I go to file my taxes it says that I got the correct amount. Why am I not receiving the child credit with stimulus? How am I supposed to add the credit to my taxes for 2020?

The stimulus check is an advance on a credit you can receive on your 2020 tax return. If something went wrong or you did not get the stimulus check in 2020, you can get it when you file your 2020 return in early 2021

The Recovery Rebate Credit will be found in the Federal Review section, If you are eligible it will end up on line 30 of your 2020 Form 1040.
