Stimulus Check

My daughter is 19 years old and I claimed her as  a dependent on my 2019 tax filing. Although I claimed her as a dependent she was not eligible for a child tax. I received my stimulus check and did not receive  a payment for my daughter.

 

my question  is she eligible for stimulus check. if yes how do I file a request for IRS

No you do not get stimulus money for your 19 year old.  People get $500 for children 16 or younger.  And dependents do not receive stimulus checks, so she will not receive a check.

Oh----so you understand---you only get the child tax credit for a child 16 or younger.   You lost the child tax credit when she turned 17.  Now you get the $500 credit for other dependents for your 19 year old dependent.
