I filed taxes for 18, but now stay at home. My boyfriend claimed my son and I on 19 taxes. We both got $1700 each from stimulus. Do I qualify or is this overpayment?

It depends.

Did you just recently file your 2019 tax returns?

If so, your stimulus payments may have been issued based upon your 2018 returns.

When you file your return in 2020, you will have the opportunity to report the amount of the stimulus check(s) you did receive, and if it was less than what you were entitled to, you will receive a credit on your tax return. If you were overpaid, you will not need to return any of it.

What does the stimulus package mean for you?
