If a child can be claimed, even if they are not actually claimed, they don't qualify.

You will need to amend your return.

So I won't get one because I accidentally put someone can claim me and no one will. Can't the irs see that? Or am I really gonna have to amend my return for 2019. Because I feel that there should of been something in place for this just saying.

The IRS doesn't cross reference this and correct your mistake.  You will need to amend.
