Stimulus check for my 98 year old aunt

By Terry Savage on September 26, 2020 | Wild Card

I have been trying to track my 98 year old aunt’s stimulus check, which she never received… I went on line as you said to do, but she does not have a computer… How can I enter her info if she has no computer ? Please help, as she needs the money…

It doesn’t have to be HER computer! YOu can do it on your computer — the same one you used to send in this question!

Did anyone declare her a dependent on their 2019 or 1019 tax return — perhaps her adult children? If so, she doeds not get a stimulus payment.

Otherwise, I’m assuming she gets Social Security. The payment should come to the same account as her SS deposit.
If she does not get SS, register here at the non-filers website — in fact do that anyway. and please write back and let me know what happens. Time is short in her case!

Here is the non-filer link — do it IMMEDIATELY:
