Stimulus: Which Americans qualify for the payments worth $850?

This June, thousands of Americans are in line to receive $850 stimulus checks from their state.

These Americans live in the state of Maine, and will need to meet certain requirements before being able to take the payment.

This stimulus check is not a federal check, but works similarly and is from the state government in Maine.

Eligibility requirements for the stimulus payments

You must be a full time resident in the state of Maine to see a check.

Your tax return for 2021 needs to be filed by Oct. 31, 2022.

The money won’t be sent to those who are claimed as a dependent by someone else.
