If your mother has less than $4300 of income ---not counting her Social Security---and you pay for over half of her support she can be a qualifying relative dependent on your return. You will get the $500 credit for other dependents and you may get the $1400 recovery rebate credit (stimulus) for claiming a dependent on a 2021 return. If she is claimed as a dependent she cannot receive a stimulus check herself.
CREDIT FOR OTHER DEPENDENTS
Just a note that the support you provide her (whether you claim her or not) could impact her SSI benefits.
