Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Seems the parent that claimed the child gets the stimulus.

 

"The child bonus will be received only by the parent who claimed the child on the tax return at issue. So if you are divorced and 2019 was the year your ex claims the kid, unfortunately you are out of luck."

"The $500 stimulus increase per child is assumed to be directly associated with the Child Tax Credit that was claimed when you filed your taxes. Per your Divorce Decree, look to see who is to claim each child."
