Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Yes, you do qualify for CAA.
Your ages are of no consequence.
You can use 2019 to calculate the stimulus.
The cutoff for the stimulus starts at $150,000.
So on all counts it does sound like you qualify.
The third stimulus check will open up more avenues for people to claim a payment, as long as their yearly earnings in 2019 or 2020 fall within the brackets for receiving a third check.
This would change the income limit for individuals and families who'd qualify for a full stimulus payment -- it isn't the same as it was for the first two rounds of checks approved in 2020.
The major variables the IRS plugs into the stimulus formula are:
- Your AGI per your 2019 or 2020 federal tax returns.
- Upper income limits for single taxpayers, heads of household (for example, a single person with at least one child) and married couples filing jointly.
- The number of eligible dependents you claim.
- Reduction or "phase-out" rate -- the amount your total would drop for every $1,000 you make above the income limit that allows you to qualify for the full check amount. In other words, the IRS calculates a partial payment if you don't qualify for the full amount.
