How do I get the corona virus stimulus monies

[CatinaT1]

There is no specific information as to those who do not have a filing requirement, other than if you only receive Social Security and are not required to file, you will still qualify and do not need to do anything additional.

Non-filers: Haven't filed a tax return for a previous year? Take steps now.

The IRS encourages anyone with a tax filing obligation who hasn't filed a tax return for 2018 or a previous year to act now. – Pending legislation includes certain potential credits and rebates for those who have filed a return for 2018 and/or 2019. Those without 2018 tax filings on record could potentially affect mailings of stimulus checks. And more than 1 million people who haven't filed tax returns for Tax Year 2016 and are owed a refund still face an April 15, 2020, deadline to file their return. This deadline hasn't been extended. Current law requires the 2016 return to be filed by April 15, 2020.

Many non-filers should consider contacting a tax professional to consider various available options since the time to receive such refunds is limited by statute. Once delinquent returns have been filed, most taxpayers have the opportunity to resolve any outstanding liabilities by entering into an Installment Agreement or an Offer in Compromise with the IRS to obtain a "Fresh Start." See IRS.gov for further information.

So what form do I need

If you’re not required to file taxes and don’t receive Social Security benefits, use our free Stimulus Registration for non-tax filers to give the IRS your up-to-date mailing address and direct deposit banking info.

Where is the registration form for non-filers? I haven’t filed since 2016 and that’s because I have a small business I make less than $10k. Everyone keeps linking us to the calculator. Where can we make sure IRS has our updated info?

Below the calculator you will see the box "If you don't need to file your taxes this year" and a "Register Now" button. That is where you will input your registration information.
