Based on the $35K income she made, she does not qualify to be your dependent. According to the IRS, she
was eligible for the full amount of the third Economic Impact Payment if:
- are a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien (and their spouse if filing a joint return), and
- are not a dependent of another taxpayer, and
- had adjusted gross income (AGI) that is not more than:
- $150,000 if married and filing a joint return or if filing as a qualifying widow or widower
- $112,500 if filing as head of household or
- $75,000 for any other filing status
Before she claims the rebate on her tax return, make sure you didn't receive a $1400 for her if you claimed her as a dependent in 2020. There was a $1400 stimulus payments for taxpayers and dependents based from the 2019 and 2020 tax return. Don't instruct her to claim the rebate if you have already received a stimulus payment for her. You and your spouse should receive a letter from the IRS reporting the stimulus payments they sent to you.
