Economic Impact Payments

​​

• ​IRS started issuing Economic Impact Payments in April.  Be sure to keep the notice you received regarding your Economic Impact Payment with your 2020 tax records. These notices are mailed to each recipient’s last known address within 15 days after the Payment is made.

​

• Anyone who does not receive a payment this year – including those who are not normally required to file a federal tax return will need to wait until next year and claim it as a credit on your 2020 federal income tax return.

​

• Taxpayers can claim the recovery rebate credit on their tax year 2020 tax return in 2021 if they didn't receive a payment or if their payment wasn't the correct amount.
