My ex and I claim our son on alternating years. He claimed him per 2019 and received the stimulus, will I be able to get that on my 2020 tax return?

Yes, if you claim your son as a dependent on your 2020 tax return, you will get a stimulus payment for him as a credit on your tax return, even though your ex got a payment for him based on your ex's 2019 tax return.
what is the question?

How or where would I find this in my taxes?
if you are claiming your son, you'll see the credit for the stimulus on Line 30 of Form 1040. Currently, TT is only programmed for the 1st stimulus but should be updated before the window opens in late January. Do you see $500 on Line 30? if not what is there?
