My father informed me that either 2017 or 2018 he might have claimed me as an adult dependant before I moved out..if it was 2018..could that be the "if otherwise qualified" you stated above. ? Or would that have been an automatic rejection code from the IRS, if my SSN was on another tax return?. As I understand it..if I was claimed on another return and it turns out it was 2018.. then I would be exempt from receiving my stimulous..Sorry I am having so much difficulties with understanding this.

Otherwise qualified would mean meeting the income limitation of making less than $75,000. If you have filed or will file an informational return for tax year 2019 and no one has claimed you as a dependent for tax year 2019 and you meet the income qualifications you will receive a stimulus payment.

Yes, if your registration submission was accepted then the IRS will send your stimulus check.

The non-filers site basically fills out a 2019 federal tax return with $1 in income. The IRS has accepted your return. As long as you otherwise qualify, you should receive your stimulus payment.

I just did mine today and I got the email that my non filers info was accepted. When I go back on there to check e-file status, it only tells me that it was accepted and that they were processing if I’m eligible for the payment or not. Is there a certain time limit that I should wait to check after getting accepted? And will I get my payment or do I have my hopes up for nothing? I meet all the requirements for me to be eligible. I have real bad anxiety so I’m really anxious about this. I’m in a hole right now and need this money to come.

Patience ... this will take some time ... it is not an instant process. Now that the return was successfully submitted for processing the IRS must now process it ... this year expect it to take as long as 3 months.

Check the stimulus status at this site not the WMR tool : https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment
