Stimulus Check

The deadline to get the stimulus check payments is November 15. That’s when a telephone hotline will close, where people who don’t file tax returns can call and request a check. You’ll be asked questions such as whether you were an American citizen or permanent resident in 2020 and whether you had any dependents in 2020.

 If you didn’t receive your relief package, make sure you contact the IRS before it is too late A single person can get $1,200 if they meet certain income requirements for couples filing jointly there’s a $2,400 payment available Eligible taxpayers with children under 17 also get $500 per child The most a person or couple with children can get is $3,400 There are several groups of people who aren’t eligible for a second stimulus check

If you’re worried about missing out on a second round of stimulus checks, you might want to keep an eye on your mailbox.

If you haven’t received your first round of stimulus payments yet, there’s still time to get one. The IRS has set a deadline of Nov. 15 for people who didn’t receive their check by Oct. 27 (the original deadline) or who have not applied for the payment before now and want to claim it in 2019 tax returns.

The delay was due to technical issues with the IRS system used to process them, according to the agency’s website: “We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”
