My son gets social security but it comes to me in my name. How will he benefit from that?


If you are claiming him on your tax return as a dependent then he is not eligible for a stimulus payment.

 

Note - DO NOT enter his Social Security benefits on your tax return.  The SSA-1099 he receives from Social Security for the benefits have his Social Security number in box 2 of the form, not yours.  If he receives no other income then he does not report his benefits on a tax return.
