New Tool for Low Income Americans Needing Stimulus Check
We all jumped for joy when we found out we were going to have the opportunity to stimulate the economy. President Trump signed into law a $2.2 trillion rescue package with the goal to boost the faltering economy. So far over $267 Billion has been sent out to American citizens.
Are you one of the unlucky people who have yet to receive your stimulus check? The IRS is urging low-income Americans, who have not received their stimulus checks to register for an Economic Impact Payments before October 15th. This new online tool has already processed 159 million payments. The money is moving fast, the question is, are you in line to get paid? The IRS has made it easy to get your money.
On Wednesday the IRS launched a non-filers tool for Americans who aren't required to or who did not file tax returns. This new tool was created for Americans whose income falls under $24,400 for married couples and $12,200 for individuals or are homeless.
The link to the IRS tool said "Here is a free IRS tool that allows you to easily and quickly provide us the necessary 2019 information about yourself and any eligible spouse or qualifying children (Children under the age of 17 at the end of 2019). We will use this information to determine your eligibility and payment amount and send you an Economic Impact Payment. After providing this information, you won’t need to take any additional action."
The IRS plans to partner with groups across America who serve homeless individuals and underserved communities to make sure that every American receives their $1,200 as promised by President Trump.
