@IRonMaN "I guess you will eventually find out."

God grant me the serenity
To accept the stimulus checks that I received
Patience to wait for those that may yet come
And wisdom to know the difference.

If they were claimed as a dependent they should not receive the EIP....but deceased people are getting paid, so you never know......I'll be curious to see what happens.

Thats actually a good question....

I will ask a client of mine as she claims her brother who is on SSDI.

"as she claims her brother who is on SSDI."

 

People on SSDI will get their own payment, though.

But not someone who collects SS due to age?

The latest IRS bulletins make it clear that a parent on SS retirement but claimed as a dependent on another return will not be getting the stimulus at all. Same for student dependents over 17.

My question is whether they would get it if an amended return is filed removing them as dependents would make them eligible this or next year for full stimulus? Or is there a chance IRS will allow some kind of on line fix to remove dependents while waiting for amended paper returns to be processed.

So which return was prepared fraudulently - the original or the amended?
