If by accident I marked myself as a ‘dependent’ on my 2019 taxes, and I didn’t receive my stimulus check. I heard that if you don’t receive the stimulus check this year, you can get it as credit on the 2020 taxes. However, I won’t be filing next year since I was unemployed and made no income whatsoever. Though no one claimed me, I was still considered ineligible and my amended return hasn’t been processed. Assuming that I can’t get the payment by the end of the year, will the dependency mistake affect my non-filer option to get the check next year as credit?
