Correction!
If someone filed 2018 and/or 2019 and they qualify now, but let's say they won't qualify on their 2020 tax return ( because for whatever reason your income would be higher this 2020 year), they IRS won't ask the stimulus check back
BUT
If someone filed 2018 and/or 2019 and they DON'T qualify OR qualify for a lesser amount, BUT they would qualify after filing 2020 return, they will get the 1200 then in 2021, or the difference between what they ar getting now and 1200.

What all this means is that you could get more than what you qualify for based on your 2020 income and the government isn't going to come after you to settle the score. For example, if your 2020 AGI is too high — $99,000 for individuals and $198,000 for married couples who file jointly — but your 2018 or 2019 income is within the limits, you'll receive a payment.
If the opposite happens to be true — your 2019 or 2018 income disqualified you from getting a payment but your 2020 income is within the limits — you should be able to get your full check when you file your 2020 tax return next year.
