Those are two separate things!
Your tax refund will come — in good time — and with interest. There is nothing you can do to hurry it along. It was a paper return and the IRS is still way behind because they are so busy with stimulus checks!
As for the $600 stimulus from THIS year, you MUST file your 2020 tax return and claim that amount on Line 30. Be sure to file electronically this year and include your direct deposit bank info.
