Stimulus check

By Terry Savage on May 29, 2020 | Wild Card

My 24 yr old daughter filed her 2018 and 2019 taxes electronically in March as Single and makes 35K.
I used Turbo tax filed Head of Household and it automatically loaded her information but says cannot claim as a dependent. We received the stimulus checks for my wife and I but my daughter has not. Her refund for last year & this year both were sent electronically to her bank but no stimulus yet. The IRS site does not show anything in process for her. Do I need to amend and take her info off my return? Can you appeal her not receiving one?
She filed a 4- 6 weeks prior to myself.

Thank you

Why on earth did you try to claim her as a dependent when she was making money and filing her own return???
If you put her SS number anywhere on YOUR return, it probably disqualified her from getting a payment! And if you did not put her SS number her return, then she should wait patiently for her check or direct deposit.
