Stimulus Checks for infant
Do families need to do anything in order to receive stimulus funds for a baby born in 2020? Can I receive both payments for a child born in June of 2020?

You certainly can receive the 2020 payment when you file your 2020 tax return in a few weeks. but you should have a SS number for your baby in order to file for the refundable tax credit on Line 30 of your 2020 tax return. But I doubt you could get the original $500 check. It’s an interesting question though, and I’ll ask my contact at the IRS.
