@ReneeM7122 - can we please re-address your response?
@bgrperez
the issue is CAN the mother claim @bgrperez ? the issue is not was he claimed? see the difference?
the situations is clear, if the mother makes above the threshold, she is not eligible for the stimulus and the dependent child who CAN be claimed wouldn't be eligible either. The child must click the box the they CAN be claimed by someone else.
The taxpayer has the option to claim or not claim a dependent, but that doesn't change the answer from the dependent's perspective, CAN they be claimed? it's always the same response, regardless of what the parent decides to do,.
