If your son is claimed or can be claimed as a dependent on your return, he
is ineligible for a stimulus payment.

And even if the dependency disqualification doesn't apply, he apparently
does not have sufficient qualifying income.

Default Stimulus Payment for Teenager

I have a son who is now 13 years old. For tax year and prior, I filed a
form 1040A for him as he had investment income. That changed during 2004
and there has been no need to file a tax return for him ever since as he
no longer has investment income.

Today I received a blank Form 1040A in an evenlope marked "STIMULUS
PAYMENT" with a notice to file this and mark STIMULUS PAYMENT on it.
HUH???????????

First of all, does my kid qualify for the bucks? Our (wife and I)taxable
income is over $200,000. Certainly WE don't qualify. Second of all, if
he DOES qualify, do I just send a form 1040A in with his name and
address and SS number and no other data?

A little more info on this is appreciated.
