My parents claimed me as a dependent in 2018. I filed my 2019 a couple weeks ago. I am not being claimed as a dependent this year. My 2019 taxes have not been accepted yet. How do i get my stimulus check?

You can track the status of your stimulus payment on the IRS online portal: https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment

It's doubtful anyone answering questions on this site would know what the IRS will do.

It says it cant determine my statues. The question would be when my 2019 is accepted would they send the check after?

UPDATE:

They didn't claim me in 2018. I thought they would but i confirmed they did not. What can i do to change that on my 2018 tax form?

It would take longer to change your 2018 return than to just wait for them to process your 2019 return. A 2018 return would have to be amended with form 1040X which must be printed and mailed. It takes the IRS in normal times about 16 weeks to process an amended return.
