@rprassetya - please review below. If you are filing single, you are not eligible for a payment, a child is not eligible for a payment on their own because they are a dependent of another taxpayer (in this case its parents)
.... if you are filing joint, what is the status of your spouse (US citizen or Resident Alien) - that is going to make a difference. If the spouse is eligible, then the child is eligible if all the rules below are met (but you would still be ineligible based on the facts your presented)

Q A1. Am I eligible? (updated October 26, 2020)
A1. Generally, if you are a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien, you will receive an Economic Impact Payment of $1,200 ($2,400 for a joint return) if you (and your spouse if filing a joint return) are not a dependent of another taxpayer and have a Social Security number valid for employment and your adjusted gross income (AGI) does not exceed:
- $150,000 if married and filing a joint return
- $112,500 if filing as head of household or
- $75,000 for eligible individuals using any other filing status
Your payment will be reduced by 5% of the amount by which your AGI exceeds the applicable threshold above.
You are not eligible for a payment if any of the following apply to you:
- You may be claimed as a dependent on another taxpayer’s return (for example, a child or student who may be claimed on a parent’s return or a dependent parent who may be claimed on an adult child’s return).
- You do not have a Social Security number that is valid for employment.
- You are a nonresident alien.
The following are also not eligible: a deceased individual or an estate or trust.
