Do I qualify for any of the stimulus cash disbursements? I have not received any of the stimulus money. I am trying to qualify for SSID. (Social Security Ins. Dist.)

I have received $9,000.00 a year for the past 10 to 15 years. Usually less in pass years.  Andrew Stewart

File a 2020 tax return and use the recovery rebate credit.   That is the only way now; there is not a "non-filer" portal now.   Enter $1 of interest income if you need to, and use zero as your 2019 AGI so that you can e-file.

 

  

The stimulus check is an advance on a credit you can receive on your 2020 tax return.  If something went wrong or you did not get the stimulus check in 2020, you can get it when you file your 2020 return in early 2021

The Recovery Rebate Credit will be found in the FEDERAL REVIEW section. ( you should see "Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount”)  If you are eligible it will end up on line 30 of your 2020 Form 1040.

 

Make sure that you enter ALL of the stimulus money received for the 1st and 2nd stimulus for yourself, your spouse and your children.
