The $500 payment may have been a mistake. If your daughter was 18 for any part of 2020 then she would not be eligible for the first and second payments.
A qualifying child for the first and second payments are a child who meets the following conditions:
- Relationship to the individual who’s eligible for the payment: The child is your son, daughter, stepchild, eligible foster child, brother, sister, stepbrother, stepsister, half-brother, half-sister, or a descendant of any of them (for example, grandchild, niece, or nephew).
- Child's age: The child was under age 17 on December 31, 2019.
- Dependent of the individual who's eligible for the payment: The child was claimed as your dependent on your 2019 tax return or in the Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info Here tool.
- Child's citizenship: The child’s a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or U.S. resident alien.
- Child's residency: The child lived with you for more than half of 2019.
- Support for child: The child didn’t provide over half of their own support for 2019.
- Child's tax return: The child doesn’t file a joint return for the year (or files it only to claim a refund of withheld income tax or estimated tax paid).
The TurboTax Recovery Rebate Questions will calculate your correct payment based on the information you provide for your 2020 tax return.
