Are paper stimulus checks in the mail
The paper stimulus checks!
As of my knowledge cutoff, the IRS has been sending out paper stimulus checks to eligible individuals and families as part of the Economic Impact Payments (EIP) program, also known as the stimulus checks or relief checks.
Here are some updates on the status of paper stimulus checks:
- First round of checks: The IRS sent out the first round of stimulus checks in April and May 2020, with the majority of checks being mailed out by mid-May.
- Second round of checks: The IRS began sending out the second round of stimulus checks in December 2020 and January 2021, with the majority of checks being mailed out by mid-January 2021.
- Third round of checks: The IRS started sending out the third round of stimulus checks in March 2021, with the majority of checks being mailed out by mid-April 2021.
If you're still waiting for your paper stimulus check, here are some possible reasons why:
- Address issues: The IRS may have incorrect or outdated address information for you, which could delay or prevent your check from being mailed.
- Dependents or changes: If you have dependents or changes in your household, such as a new baby or a change in marital status, this may have affected your eligibility or the amount of your stimulus check.
- Bank account information: If you provided bank account information, your stimulus check may have been direct deposited instead of mailed.
To check the status of your stimulus check, you can:
- Visit the IRS's "Get My Payment" tool on their website.

Remember to keep an eye on your mail and bank accounts for any updates or notifications from the IRS.
