That's weird. Because when I tried to sign up I get this message:

 

That came from the website of TN DHS. https://tdhs.service-now.com/relief?id=relief_registration&fbclid=IwAR0DqkbM6akiMGWo1YeSS2goc1gh5xvSf7_m9qdjr8sg5mqWs2XDZrZi44Q

I agree with the others....I have no idea what you are referring to here. This is not the stimulus checks  that are being discussed in this thread.

Ok so I got confused but the stimulus check and thought those are something we have to sign up for.

You don't sign up for the stimulus check. They're being automatically sent or deposited based on your most recent filed tax return. I am also still working and still getting the stimulus check. What you posted looks like you're applying for unemployment. 

Well the link was there and now it's gone. I wasn't trying to sign up for unemployment at all because I still happily work. I thought in order to get that check we have to sign up for it so idk.

Yes and this leaving an entire age out of recieving the stimulus check is BS. My poor daughter is 17 and has lost her job and will not get a stimulus check since she was obviously claimed as a dependent on my taxes, but since she's not under 17 I also don't get the $500 for her on my stimulus check. At least she gets unemployment. 

Yup. Same situation here. Ours turned 18 last month. Filed her own tax return as an adult, work hours cut by 70% 
 

anyone with a 17 or 18 year old gets skipped over.

     Will you be claiming her as a dependent in 2020?  She could qualify for her own $1200 (credit) if she is no longer a qualifying dependent.

This. She may get $1200...which is better than $500 as a child last time I checked.

Thanks and yeah we filed early this year and claimed her a a dependent for 2019 because she was 16 and turned 17 last year. So when we helped her file her tax return we made sure she checked the box that we claimed her. 
 

usually we are lazy and only get filing in early April. Of course the one time we come early, before we knew about any of this ... Such is life. 
 

it’s just frustrating because I know that most people with 17/18 year olds are in the same situation.
