Education

Not sure what you received from your school but it could not have been a stimulus check.   Stimulus checks were issued  by the IRS--not schools.    If you were a student in 2020 and have been claimed as a dependent for 2020 on your parents' tax return you are not eligible to receive a stimulus check.  Dependents are not eligible.  Did you say on your return that you cannot be claimed as someone else's dependent?
