Stimulus Check By Mistake

More than half of the 150 million stimulus payments earmarked for americans have already.

Stimulus check by mistake. Congress may be meddling over the idea of approving 2 000 stimulus checks but doing so would be a pretty serious mistake at least according to one former u s. But problems arose for people whose checks. Most of the 150 million stimulus payments earmarked for americans have already been.

Can my stimulus check be wrong. The irs has posted an announcement acknowledging the error reassuring people that the stimulus payments are on their way and urging them not to call them or their tax preparation companies. Some stimulus checks did not come in the expected amount.

To be clear the irs hasn t outlined any consequences for not returning a stimulus check it sent by mistake. The irs said it has deposited more than 100 million stimulus checks into eligible americans bank accounts since the money started going out last week. When reports of the mistake first surfaced the u s government placed the blame on those non americans saying that many noncitizens erroneously received stimulus checks because they had filed.

If yours is one of them here s what you need to know. But since this is an urgent situation the government is using the information it already has to determine the amount you get now. To be clear the irs hasn t outlined any consequences for not returning a stimulus check it sent by mistake.
