Stimulus Checks Qualifications
My daughter did not receive the two stimulus checks due to the fact that she and her husband filed joint returns and their combined incomes were too high to qualify. They separated in May 2019, and are now divorced — divorce was final in September 2020 and they have joint custody of one child age 11 years. Her income is now only around $60,000. Is she eligible for the stimulus checks? If so, who does she contact for her checks?

Based on her 2020 income, she can probably get BOTH stimulus checks. Read this article for instructions.
But only one can declare their daughter as a dependent on a tax return. That person will get a $600 stimulus check on behalf of the little girl.
