IRS Sending Special Stimulus Checks To Millions Of Americans, Here’s Who Qualifies

The IRS has announced it will send out over $2.4 billion in special payments to over 1 million people who did not claim federal stimulus checks on their 2021 tax return.

Later this month, the IRS will send checks to anyone who did not claim their 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit.

The recovery Rebate Credit is “a refundable credit for individuals who did not receive one or more stimulus payments, officially known as Economic Impact Payments (EIP).”
