My client's daughter was 18 at the end of 2020.  She is still in high school and earned $3000 working part time in 2020.  She is a dependent in both 2019 and 2020.  The parents did not receive either stimulus payments for her and she did not receive any as this is the daughter's first year filing a tax return.

My questions are:

1. The parents are entitled to a Recovery Rebate credit for the daughter, yes?

2. If yes, how do I answer the question 6 and 9 on the Recovery Rebate Worksheet (in ProSeries Basic) asking to "Multiply $500 ($600) by the number of qualifying children under age 17 at the end of 2020 listed in the Dependents section on page 1 of Form 1040 for whom you either checked the "Child Tax Credit" box or entered an adoption taxpayer identification number."?

She is a dependent on her parent's return and cannot claim the Recovery Rebate on her own return.

I apologize if I'm beating a dead horse here.  I really tried to search through questions others have asked and didn't exactly find the same scenarios.

Thanks for any help or advice you can give!
