Rssa recipients going to get a stimulus check in 2025
Answer
The latest information and instructions from the IRS on the Economic Impact Payments (also known as stimulus payments) and on the Recovery Rebate Credit made available to those who did not receive one or more of their Economic Impact Payments is available at https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/recovery-rebate-credit
According to this news release,
The Recovery Rebate Credit is a refundable credit for individuals who did not receive one or more Economic Impact Payments (EIP), also known as stimulus payments.
In December 2024, the IRS began issuing payments to eligible people who did not claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on their 2021 tax returns. All payments should be received by late January 2025, and taxpayers do not need to take any action to receive these payments.
For detailed information, see "IRS announces special payments going this month to 1 million taxpayers who did not claim 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit; encourages non-filers about approaching deadline to claim credits" https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-announces-special-payments-going-this-month-to-1-million-taxpayers-who-did-not-claim-2021-recovery-rebate-credit-encourages-non-filers-about-approaching-deadline-to-claim-credits
The IRS had previously issued all first, second and third Economic Impact Payments. Most eligible people already received their stimulus payments and won't be eligible to claim a Recovery Rebate Credit.
