Retirement tax questions

No, don't file an income tax return.  The IRS will determine eligibility and where to send stimulus payments based on your last IRS processed tax return. The eligibility for the second and third stimulus have changed from the first stimulus check.

 

To be eligible for the third stimulus, you need to meet the following requirements: 

  • Families earning less than $150,000 a year and individuals earning less than $75,000 a year should get the full $1,400 per person.
  • Families earning up to $160,000 per year and individuals earning up to $80,000 per year will receive prorated amounts.
  • One notable difference from the first two stimulus is that you will receive stimulus payments for all your dependents, including adult dependents and college students.
