The stimulus payment is $1,200 for an individual or $2,400 for married filing jointly and will be based on your 2019 tax return. If you have not yet filed for 2019, the IRS will defer to your 2018 return.
The stimulus payment is available for dependents that qualify under child tax credit. The Child Tax Credit is available for each qualifying child under the age of 17. However, in the tax year that a child turns 17, they no longer qualify for this credit.
What do I need to know about the coronavirus stimulus package?
If you believe there was an error in amount, the IRS will be reconciling the stimulus payment on your 2020 tax return. Your only other option is to wait to contact them when available.

I recieved the wrong amount
This has happened to several people and the IRS has not indicated where or how to report this.
I do know that the stimulus payments will all be reconciled when you file your 2020 return (in 2021) and if you were not paid the correct amount you will receive it then. I know that doesn't help you today, but I'm not sure the IRS will issue corrections before then. Several have indicated their payment amount seems to correspond with the children claimed on the 2018 return, not 2019. Again, we are not aware of how the IRS is determining which return to go by. We thought it would be 2019 if that had already been filed, but reality is showing us this is not always the case.
NOT A COVID 19 Stimulus question. From my actual IRS filing, the IRS deposited the wrong amount and they were way off the correct amount that should have been deposited. What can I do or do I have to wait until the pandemic is over and the IRS is somewhat back to normal?
