You can't "fix" this except by printing your correct return, signing it, and mailing it in.  The IRS will process your return and pay your refund, and then address any conflicts.    If you did figure out which dependent was the problem, and remove them so you can e-file, you may get much less money, and then it would take 6-8 months to get an amended return with the correct info.      If you claimed the correct dependents based on the rules, file by mail. If you think your child might be a victim of identity theft, you can get an IP PIN for them that will block anyone else from claiming them in the future. https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pin

Check your online account with the IRS to see what it says about the stimulus check.   Those checks were sent out for 2021, or you could seek the stimulus amount by using the recovery rebate credit on a 2021 return.   If you did not receive it, and did not use the recovery rebate credit on a 2021 return, it is --sadly -- too late now. https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account
