Ask Terry Questions Latest Stimulus

Latest Stimulus

By Terry Savage on January 29, 2021 | Wild Card

Terry,
My Dad passed away on December 13, 2020. He and my Mom received the first stimulus check via direct deposit to their bank account. I keep checking their account to see if my Mother has received the last stimulus of $600.00 and to date, she has not. Do you think my Dad’s passing has had an impact on her receiving the benefit? Maybe she will receive it in the form of the debit card you mentioned on WGN today. (blue with silver stars) I just want to make sure she receives it and I’m not sure how to find out that her benefit hasn’t been interrupted.
Thank you for your time!

If she hasn’t received it in the next two weeks, she should file her 2020 return and request the $600 on Line 30.
