SSI for disabled person

My son is not claimed as dependent for 2019. He receives SSI (around $700/month). Where should I put his income on the 1040 tax form? Does he qualify for the COVID-19 stimulus?

If your son receives SS disability benefits, he does not need to file a tax return. The IRS already has his bank information for the benefits payments and will use it to direct deposit his stimulus payment.

Even if he was claimed as dependent in 2018?

If you’ve been claimed as a dependent on someone else’s 2019 tax return, you aren’t eligible to receive a
stimulus check.
