Dependent

[Bakerjen52978]

The whole reason I was filing was because my son was claimed by my mother and father and they ended up getting the two stimulus checks before this one and I got full custody of my son back he lived with me this whole year and we didn’t get his third stimulus check I didn’t go to my mom and I didn’t go to his direct express card so they told me to file my taxes again and add him as a dependent well I’m not sure if I did it right and I didn’t have no one to help me with it so my question is is did I do it right just so I can get the money for him because he has hospital bills that I have to pay because he has been sick since lastJanuary and I have been paying the bills for it and I needed that money to catch up on some of his hospital bills so my question was is did I do it right and I don’t know if I did or not thank you Jennifer Baker

if you claimed your son  as a dependent on your 2020 tax return, look at line 30 of Form 1040 - what number is there? 

for the 3rd stimulus check, if you do not receive it, it will reconcile itself when you file your 2021 tax return.  But the IRS has not completed sending out the 3rd stimulus, so be patient.

The problem is I don’t make enough money to even file taxes every year. I take care of my son who is sick and has autoimmune encephalitis, Who also has autism and at this time since January of last year he has been sick with it came out of nowhere and I’ve been taking care of him I have filed for disability myself for breast cancer been deniedIt’s OK though I have no clue about taxes so I will not file be filing for any for next year because I won’t be able to work with him or me myself so don’t reckon so it’s so so I have no idea when you’re telling me to look at line 40 I don’t know where to even begin to work so I’m just gonna sit back and wait and see if they fix it yourself I guess because I don’t have any other help so if it doesn’t fix it so then I guess I’ll just have to call the RS they are the ones who told me to fill that form out to him down as a dependent
