Have all the stimulus checks been mailed out yet
The stimulus checks, also known as Economic Impact Payments (EIPs), were mailed out in several waves by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to eligible individuals and families in the United States. The IRS has completed the majority of the payments, but some may still be pending or delayed.
Here's an update on the status of the stimulus checks:
- First round of payments (March 2020): The IRS mailed out the first round of stimulus checks to eligible individuals and families in March 2020. This round of payments was for $1,200 per adult and $500 per child, with a maximum payment of $2,400 per household.
- Second round of payments (December 2020): The IRS mailed out the second round of stimulus checks, also known as the "stimulus checks 2.0," in December 2020. This round of payments was for $600 per adult and $600 per child, with a maximum payment of $1,200 per household.
- Third round of payments (March 2021): The IRS mailed out the third round of stimulus checks, also known as the "stimulus checks 3.0," in March 2021. This round of payments was for $1,400 per adult and $1,400 per child, with a maximum payment of $2,800 per household.
As of now, the IRS has completed the majority of the payments for the third round of stimulus checks. However, some payments may still be pending or delayed due to various reasons, such as:
- Address changes: If you've moved since the last time you filed your taxes, your stimulus check may be delayed or sent to the wrong address.
- Bank account issues: If you've changed banks or closed your account, your stimulus check may be delayed or returned to the IRS.
- Tax filing issues: If you haven't filed your taxes or have outstanding tax debt, your stimulus check may be delayed or withheld.
- Identity verification issues: If the IRS is unable to verify your identity, your stimulus check may be delayed or denied.
