500 one time stimulus check for adult college student dependent

By Terry Savage on September 22, 2021 | Wild Card

Hi Terry,
I read an article on “news break” that I subscribe to and it said ” $500 stimulus check is available to some right now. Similar to the child tax credit payments going out to families across the U.S. each month – most are eligle for a one-time payment of $500 to cover an adult dependent. This is anyone who’s up to 24 and attending college full time.”

Then it said “as always, you can check out the IRS website to learn more about what’s available to you now.”

Terry, I searched the IRS site and cannot find out anything about this. I have a 21yr old in his last year of college at Iowa State and we are paying out of state tution. This could really help. Do you know anything about this or where I could find out some information on it?

Thank you in advance,

aside from the three original payments (and they each had different requirements when it came to young dependents) there is no new program that is as you described.
