My parents and i have already done our 2020 taxes they did them married join they didn't claim me as a dependent and i did mine separately as single. so the situations is that i got my 1400 stimulus check and they got a 4200 stimulus check is it because they claim me as a dependent in their 2019 taxes. would they need to send back the extra 1400 to the IRS or they can keep it

I don't think anyone has to pay it back.  Like the 1st 2 Stimulus payments  if you got too much you can keep it.  A lot of people got extra payments.
