@KohlHoffman1 No you will not get a stimulus check. At the age of 18 you can still be claimed as a qualifying child on your parents' tax return. In fact, no matter how much you earn you can be claimed as a QC until the year you turn 19, or until you turn 24 if you are a full-time student.
The same rules will be in effect for the "second round" of stimulus checks--turning 18 has not made you eligible. Sorry. If you were claimed as a dependent on your parents' 2019 return, that is still in effect. And...Congress has not yet actually voted for a second stimulus yet.
Here are the rules your parents (or anyone else) have to follow for claiming you as a dependent:
WHO CAN I CLAIM AS A DEPENDENT?
You can claim a child, relative, friend, fiance (etc.) as a dependent on your 2019 taxes as long as they meet the following requirements:
Qualifying child
• They are related to you.
• They cannot be claimed as a dependent by someone else.
• They are a U.S. citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident.
• They are not filing a joint return with their spouse.
• They are under the age of 19 (or 24 for full-time students).
- No age limit for permanently and totally disabled children
• They live with you for more than half the year (exceptions apply).
Qualifying relative
• They don't have to be related to you (despite the name).
• They cannot be claimed as a dependent by someone else.
• They are a U.S. citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident.
• They are not filing a joint return with their spouse.
• They lived with you the entire year.
• They made less than $4200 (not counting Social Security)
• You provided more than half of their financial support. More info
When you add someone as a dependent, we'll ask a series of questions to make sure you can claim them.
