$1400 Stimulus Checks in 2024: Are They for Everyone? Eligibility and Payment Dates
The IRS intends to issue $1,400 stimulus reimbursements to approximately 1 million taxpayers in the coming weeks. These payments will be put immediately into bank accounts or mailed as physical checks. This effort is intended to help people who may have lost out on financial aid during the pandemic. This initiative is part of a $2.4 billion reimbursement to taxpayers who failed to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on their 2021 tax forms. The credit was intended for persons who either did not get a COVID stimulus payment or received less than they were entitled to. Claiming this credit enabled taxpayers to reclaim unpaid money from previous stimulus packages.

- To qualify, you must have submitted a 2021 tax return.
- These payouts are for people who left the Recovery Rebate Credit section blank or accidentally typed $0.
- You must have been qualified for federal stimulus funds (also known as Economic Impact funds) depending on your income and tax filing status in 2021.
- The cheques are intended for people who missed a stimulus payment or received less than the due amount.
- Your income and filing status must meet the standards established for the original stimulus payments.
- The IRS used its records to identify eligible taxpayers, ensuring that payments were made to the correct persons.
