stimulus check

By Terry Savage on January 29, 2021 | Wild Card

Hi Terry,
I received a check from the federal government stating economic impact payment….but it was for $31.80?
I only made around $50K last year and according to everything I have read, I should have received a check for $600.
Any idea as to why?…my partner also received same odd amount for $126.70 and about the same in earnings for the year.
I appreciate your assistance.
Have a great day

I am guessing that those are the payments for interest on a delayed tax refund. But if not, file your 2020 return in the next two weeks, and on LINE 30 put in the missing amount. Read this for details.
