Get your taxes done using TurboTax
It doesn't matter whether or not your mother has filed her tax return this year. What matters is if you still qualify as her dependent. The IRS will go by your most recent tax return to determine eligibility. If your mother is claiming you as a dependent on her 2019 tax return then you should have indicated so when you filed. In this case, you will not receive a stimulus payment since dependents are not eligible. If your mother is not claiming you as a dependent this year, then you do qualify. The IRS will send your payment based on your 2019 return.
