Question

Stimulus

I claimed my 17 year old last year but since she was 17 didn't get stimulus for her. She worked in 2020 and is filing this year will she get the stimulus money? I know when I do a tax estimate on her it shows her getting it.

Level 15

Since you're 17-year-old can be claimed as a dependent on your return she must indicate that on her return even if you will not claim her on your return.

And since she can be claimed as a dependent she is not eligible for the stimulus check in any fashion that is against the law.

Level 3

She turned 18 last march and lives on her own.
