Will U.S. citizens living and working abroad qualify for the recently passed government stimulus plan. Will they receive a check a mail just like those living in the US?

There is no recently passed stimulus plan.  Congress is still debating it.  The Senate has not yet passed the bill, and the House of Representatives is not even in Washington DC at this point to vote on it if the Senate ever manages to reach a deciding vote.

 

The questions about “stimulus checks” are beginning after a press conference that just happened on 3-17-2020.   So far this is a proposal that has not been finalized or voted on by Congress.  Please be patient until there is actual information to provide to you.  We cannot tell you if you will get a check, when you will get a check or how much it will be for.  No one knows yet.

When will IRS begin mailing checks to expats' overseas addresses? Seems that the IRS system does not recognize my address when checking the get my stimulus link. Any information anyone?
