EIP payment: dependent 2018 not 2019

Hi everyone! I'm asking about 1. my eligibility for a stimulus check 2. if eligible, when I should expect it. My situation is that I was a dependent in 2018, but not 2019. My parents (in April/May) had not yet filed their taxes, and the IRS used their 2018 return for the EIP. Therefore, they got a dependent payment since I was listed as their dependent. I filed my own taxes (as independent) at the beginning of this month (on 7/4 because I'm super patriotic ofc :P). I have not yet received any EIP payment, and when I go to "get my payment" it says that either I'm not eligible or they don't have enough info. Any advice on this would be super helpful, thanks!
