Taxpayer's dependent son (age 16) received $13,884 in Social Security Benefits in 2020. His father had passed away a year or so ago. His mother remarried.

Further, because he received SS benefits, IRS sent the dependent the EIP2 of $600.  IRS also sent $1800 ($600 x3) to his mother and new husband. Looks like $600 too much.....

Any advice?

As far as we know now, everyone gets to keep it. Perhaps by the time 2021 tax returns are due IRS will exercise their authority to make an adjustment.
