Stimulus Check 2020 If You Haven T Filed
First if you haven t filed your taxes lately do it now.
Stimulus check 2020 if you haven t filed. If you don t have a 2018 or 2019 tax filing on record it could affect the mailing of your stimulus check. If your stimulus payment does not come by jan. 15 2021 the only way you can claim it is to file a tax return for the 2020 year.
Americans who filed taxes for 2018 or 2019 don t need to do anything. Your tax returns are due by april 15 if the irs doesn t extend the deadline. If you don t you will have to get your check next year when you file your taxes and claim the refundable tax credit.
If you didn t receive the full payment for the first or the second round of the stimulus checks you can claim it as recovery rebate credit when you file your 2020 taxes. If you are not required to file a tax return you can still get a payment.
