If you got a Stimulus payment for a dependent you aren't claiming for 2021 you don't have to pay it back. And they can get it on their own 2021 return. On their return they say NO they didn't get it - because you did.
The 3rd Stimulus payment is really based on 2021. The IRS just sent the checks out using 2020 to get them out fast.
