No, you will not get a check in 2020, but there may be a credit available to you on your 2020 tax return, the details have not been released on that yet.

Okay I was afraid that was the case. Just to be 100% clear, even though nobody physically claimed me on their taxes, since I put ”Someone can claim me” on my return, it makes me ineligible for the Covid-19 Stimulus package?

After noticing this I immediately amended my return and had to print a 1040X and mail it to the IRS. Although it takes 12-16 weeks to process, I’m hoping that after it IS processed, then I will receive the stimulus package. Thank you for all your help @KrisD15
