I am in a similar situation. It seems from the answers that I can keep the entire stimulus. But what about the newly non-dependent son/daughter? Will they be able to able to obtain the $1400 on their own, based on our 2020 returns?
We both filed in early February, but like most, they have only been “accepted”. So, they used 2019.
If I do not have to return the $1400 for her, and she can claim it for herself, aren’t we being paid twice? I don’t want to be in a situation where either of us needs to repay money. I’d rather return it, or pay her from the money I received.
