Economic Impact Payments (Stimulus Checks) for Non-Tax Filers
If someone drew Social Security (SSDI,
retirement, Widow's, SSI) in 2018 or 2019 but did not file taxes due to income
being below tax filing thresholds, they will still automatically receive the
Economic Impact Payments without having to do anything and the payment will be
deposited to the account in which they receive their Social Security checks.
However, if they have
qualifying children under 17, it is recommended that they go to the IRS’ new
webtool for Non-Filers to enter their information so they can also
claim/receive the dependent child payments.
Also, if someone did
not file taxes in 2018 or 2019 and did not start drawing Social Security
benefits until 2020, they will need to go to the IRS’s Non-Filers website to
enter their information to receive a payment.
Please see the below
link from Social Security for further information about these updates. As
a reminder, Social Security and the IRS are not going to call individuals
regarding their Economic Impact Payments such calls are scams! The only
official place to get information/file for payment for non-filers is the IRS
website: https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/economic-impact-payments. This is also the place for people to go to see if they are eligible for a
payment, and soon to check the status of your Economic Impact Payment.
