That is correct. You do not get stimulus money for a child who is older than 16. The stimulus money follows the same rule as child tax credit. You lose the child tax credit in the tax year that a child turns 17 and you do not get stimulus money for a child who was over 16 in 2020. And since he is your dependent he does not get stimulus money himself.
