Some Americans are still able to claim stimulus checks or other stimulus payments, but they need to take action to get them.
Many are able to get the payments automatically, but it’s not the case for everyone.
Federal Stimulus worth $1,400
While new stimulus checks aren’t going out anytime soon, some are still owed the original payment.
If you had a child in 2021 you can claim a credit on their behalf.
Those who obtained a new dependent may also claim the credit.
If your income changed drastically and the IRS was unaware, you can claim the stimulus check on your taxes this year.
You may do this through the recovery rebate credit on your 2022 tax return.
