I was claimed as a dependent last year, however this year I answered "No" to the "Can somebody claim you as dependent?" question. My parents haven't file their 2019 taxes yet, and they won't file me as a dependent when they do.


Am I getting a stimulus check? Or do I need to wait for my parents to file their 2019 Taxes, (and not file me as a dependent) , in order to get it?

If you cannot be claimed as a dependent you will get the stimulus. Be aware that the issue is whether you CAN be claimed not if you were claimed.
