In West Virginia, the agency also mailed 38,201 people to encourage them to check whether they are eligible for the Economic Impact Payment this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The non-filers who do not need to file a federal tax return in 2018 and 2020 also need to submit the form for the said relief under the Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info tool on IRS.gov before October 15. People with dependents who missed portions of their payment can also register for a catch-up payment by September 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IRS spokesman Luis D. Garcia stated that the letters are part of the agency&#8217;s ongoing efforts to assure that every eligible citizen receives the payment. The qualified people may also have failed to file for a tax return due to low incomes based on Forms W-1 and 1099 and the other third-party statements available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the IRS also warned that receiving the letter is not a guarantee of eligibility. One would be likely eligible for the Economic Impact Pay if a person:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>is a US citizen or a resident alien;<\/li><li>has a Social Security number that is work-eligible; and<\/li><li>is not dependent on someone else&#8217;s federal income tax return.<\/li><li>has an adjusted gross income of $75,000 or less (single), $112,500 or less (head of household), and $150,000 or less (married filing a joint return); and<\/li><li>earns more than the above amounts but still earns less than $99,000 per year or less (single), $136,500 per year or less (head of household), and $198,000 per year or less (married filing a joint return).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The IRS developed the Non-Filers tool in partnership with the Free File Alliance to assist the non-filers of taxes, like people earning less than $12,000 or less (single) and $24,000 (married couple). For those who want to apply via the Non-Filers tool, here are the requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Individuals earning $12,200 or less (single) or $24,400 or less (married couple)<\/li><li>No income at all<\/li><li>Homeless citizen<\/li><li>Unemployed citizen<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Each beneficiary can receive up to $1,200, while married couples can receive up to $2,400. Families with qualifying children under 17 years old at the end of 2019 can also get up to $500 for each eligible child. Eligible people can claim the recovery rebate on their 2020 federal income tax return by filling in 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sent letters to nine million beneficiaries of this spring&#8217;s CARES Act stimulus check, urging them to file for an additional form to claim the payment by October 15.
