Stimulus Program Information

The coronavirus relief bill passed March 27 by Congress provides payments to individuals who make less than $100,000 a year. The payment total $1,200 for each adult who makes $75,000 or less, plus $500 per child. The payment amounts decrease if you make between $75,000 and $99,000. The income is determined by your latest tax return filed with the IRS. It will use your 2019 taxes if you have filed them already, or your 2018 taxes if you haven't. If you have not filed either year, you can do so here: https://www.irs.gov/filing/free-file-do-your-federal-taxes-for-free

If your address has changed since you last filed taxes, you can fix that here: https://www.irs.gov/filing/individual/update-my-information
