In the best of times, it can take weeks or months for the IRS to sort out issues related to dependents claimed on more than one return. In the time of the Coronavirus, it may take considerably longer.
That said, you did yourself a tremendous favor by attaching your divorce decree to your returns. That could shorten -- or even eliminate -- any investigation that the IRS feels compelled to do. It's possible you could get your refund (and stimulus check) much more quickly.
