Stimulus Check Non-Filers Typos?

I filled out and submitted my nonfilers form for the stimulus check several weeks ago, but I accidentally checked the Someone can claim me as a dependent box. I cannot resubmit the form because it's still not processed. I should be able to get a payment, but this error in the way might have screwed me. What is there to do, or I just have to wait for a rejection? I've been checking my bank account and nonfilers status, and it hasn't changed for weeks, just that they accepted the form and will process it for eligibility and that there's nothing to do on my part right now, but I cannot track on the irs site. it's been almost a month.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do now.  Your error will result in the payment being rejected now.  Technically, taxpayers get a second shot at qualifying when they file their 2020 tax return in April of 2021, but it's not clear how that applies to non-filers.
