Stimulus check: Will I be able to receive my payment next year?
People who did not receive a stimulus check this year, or who think that their total earnings for this year will be below the tax threshold, could get a payment in 2021.
More than 159 million Economic Impact Payments have now been processed, according to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and many more Americans are expected to receive theirs – predominantly those who fall under the category of non-filers – those whose annual income falls below $12,200 (or $24,400 for married couples who file jointly) or who are homeless. Individuals who have no income at all, are still eligible for a stimulus payment.
Non-filers have until mid-October to register with the IRS
The Enter Payment Info Here tool for non-filers will remain available through the summer up until 15 October for those on low incomes who don’t usually file tax returns to get their information to the IRS.
Information required by non-filers
Those who haven’t received an Economic Impact check this year, or received a low amount and think that their income for 2020 will fall below the tax threshold for next year ($75,000), could still receive a stimulus payment in 2021. If you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, had gross income that did not exceed $12,200 ($24,400 for married couples) for 2019 or did not file a return for 2018 or 2019, you must provide the IRS with basic information so you can get your payment. Consult the IRS page on non-filers to see whether you are eligible and how to register.
