When will you get another stimulus check?


The coronavirus relief package signed by President Donald Trump on Sunday night included a second round of stimulus payments.
The deal is being scrutinized for $ 600, but experts say it will take at least two weeks for the Treasury to cash in individuals’ bank accounts once the law is signed.

The timing may be more challenging this time around, but Howard Gleckman, a senior fellow at the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, said the IRS could start receiving money in January.

In March, Congress provided tr 1,200 per child in direct payments under the tr 2 trillion carriage act and 4 4,400 plus ને 500 in conveyance to couples.

As in the first round, the new payments will start in phases for individuals with an adjusted total income of more than $ 75,000 and those earning more than ,000 99,000 will receive nothing. The income threshold for couples will be doubled.

It was two weeks after the first bill was passed to begin distributing money through the IRS – but some eligible recipients did not receive it even months later.

Who gets the fastest money?

Payments don’t go out all at once. Who has bank information The first money will probably be found on the file with the IRS as it will be credited directly to their account. Others will receive a paper check or prepaid debit card in the mail.

About 90 million people – more than half of those eligible – received their payments in the first three weeks of April after signing the March deal. Most people had money within two months.
Still, about 12 million eligible Americans were at risk of not getting paid, because the IRS had no way of getting them. Most of the people received the money automatically, people with very low incomes who do not normally file tax returns registered online before November 21 to provide their address or bank account number.

IRS under pressure

Additional investigations may be delayed The start of the 2020 tax filing season.

The second stimulus check means the agency will have to make changes to the tax return form, some of which has been sent to printers.

December is not the ideal time to add to the IRS workload. It is usually the month when work is done in preparation for the next filing season and more employees may be on leave due to the holiday.

“I believe the IRS will deliver the stimulus test in a timely manner. It could be at the expense of the start date of the filing season,” said Chad Hooper, executive director of the Association of Professional Managers, which advocates for more than 20,000,000 non. -Union IRS workers.
