Economic Impact Payment (EIP) for Non-Filers

Many eligible persons have already received their stimulus checks authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). The stimulus check is officially called “Economic Impact Payment (EIP).”

Those who are not required to file a tax return, “non-filers”, because their income is below the filing requirement must register with the IRS to receive their EIP or stimulus check. Non-filers include those with income below $24,400 or single with income below $12,200 and can't be claimed as a dependent by someone else. This includes couples and individuals who are experiencing homelessness.

Registration is quick, easy, and secure through the IRS website at Non-Filers

The registration deadline has been extended to November 21 Midnight ET.*

*Non-Filers that miss the deadline can still receive their EIP as a refundable credit by filing a 2020 tax return.
