Are you wondering how to apply for the Stimulus Check? The U.S. government has recently released the third round of this benefit for individuals and families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

This guide will provide an overview of eligibility, the documents needed, and how to apply for your stimulus check in your state. Read on to learn more about this important program!

Generally speaking, you may qualify for the stimulus check if you are a single taxpayer earning less than $75,000 in 2020 or married filing jointly earning less than $150,000 in 2020.

There is no minimum income amount required to qualify for the payment.

However, there is a maximum: individuals who earned more than $80,000 ($160,00 if married, and $120,000 for head of the house) won’t be eligible.

All family members with a Social Security Number or dependent can now qualify for the third stimulus check, including children, even if their parents don’t have ITINs.

Make sure you don’t mistakenly claim someone else as a dependent when filing taxes – only those who qualify can get the new financial aid.

You must be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or possessing qualifications of a nonimmigrant alien with striking residency status in the United States to get the Stimulus Check.
