- IRS gives until May 5 to claim aid
- It is an extra aid for coronavirus
- It is for certain beneficiaries
IRS May 5. The Internal rents service (IRS, for its acronym in English) disclosed through its website that extends the date to claim extra help for coronavirus.
This extra coronavirus help is for people with eligible children who receive retirement from the Social Security, Social Security Disability, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Veterans Affairs (VA) benefits.
The IRS reminds these beneficiaries that they must act before May 5 to quickly add money to their payment automatic with economic impact, called Plus 500.
The IRS issued the special alert for Supplemental Security Income and Department of Veterans Affairs beneficiaries to act, if they did not file a tax return in 2018 or 2019 and have dependents.
The IRS wants these people to be able to quickly receive the full amount of their financial impact payment.
Your $ 1,200 payments will be issued soon, and to add the amount of $ 500 per eligible child to these payments, the IRS needs the dependents information before the payments are issued.
Otherwise, your payment at this time will be only $ 1,200, and by law the additional $ 500 per eligible child will be paid in association with a return filing for fiscal year 2020.
“We want these groups to get their maximum economic impact payment of 1,200 and their 500 for each eligible child as quickly as possible,” said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig.
“They will get 1,200 automatically, but they must act quickly and use the Non-Filers tool on IRS.gov to get an additional 500 per child added to their pay,” the official added.
“Everyone should share this information widely and help others with the Plus 500 Push, so that more Americans get more money as quickly as possible,” said Rettig.
After extensive work by the IRS and partner government agencies, automatic payments of $ 1,200 will soon begin for those receiving Social Security retirement, survivor or disability benefits (SSDI), railroad retirement benefits, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and VA Compensation and Pension (C&P) beneficiaries who have not filed a tax return in the past two years.
These groups do not need any action; You will automatically receive your payment of $ 1,200.
For VA and SSI recipients who have a qualifying child and did not file a 2018 or 2019 tax return, they have a limited window to register for 500 automatically added for each eligible child to their soon-to-be 1,200 economic impact payment will be received.
A quick visit to a special non-filer tool on IRS.gov before May 5 for these groups can help put all of your eligible income payments into one payment.
It should be remembered that the Non-Filers tool is available in English and Spanish.
Eligible recipients of #Veterans benefits will get automatic Economic Impact Payments. However, those with qualifying children who don’t normally file taxes should use the #IRS Non-Filers ’tool ASAP to add $ 500 per child to their payments. https://t.co/YIM9wOrq48 #COVIDreliefIRS pic.twitter.com/4ygYSZD8fX
