My parent claimed me as a dependent on 2018 Tax return, but didn't file yet for 2019. Will I receive my stimulus payment?

So basically In 2018 my parent claimed me as a dependent in the year of 2018 but hasn't filed for 2019 yet. Will the IRS go off of that dependency of 2018 or will I be eligible to receive my stimulus payment because I filed in 2019? Help.

The IRS is basing stimulus payments off of 2019 tax returns. If a return has not yet been filed, the IRS will defer to 2018 returns. You can find more information in the link below:
