You will not receive a stimulus check for a child who turned 17 in 2020. The stimulus checks are based on the same criteria as the child tax credit, which you lose in the year the child turned 17. You were lucky to get the first check and do not have to pay it back, but they will not go back and base a 2nd check on 2019. The stimulus check was an advance credit based on your 2020 tax return, and on the age of your dependent child at the end of 2020.
