i guess I am not following... as long as you enter the amount you ACTUALLY received for the first two rebate payments, Line 30 will be correct.  Line 30 can not be less than zero.

If your dependent is already claimed on anther return, or the dependent filed " no one can claim me", line 30 won't help you.

Your return will be REJECTED.
