Non-Filers with eligible children need to act by this Wednesday to add money to their EIPs

Individuals who do not normally have a filing obligation (non-filers) and have children under the age of 17 who also don’t have a filing obligation, have until 9:00 a.m. PST (12:00 p.m. EST) Wednesday, April 22, to visit the IRS “special non-filer tool” to enter information in order to add $500 per eligible child to their automatic payment of $1,200!

The $1,200 automatic payments will be starting soon for those receiving Social Security retirement, survivor or disability benefits (SSDI), Railroad Retirement benefits, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Veterans Affairs beneficiaries. Those that fall into any of these categories and who didn’t file a tax return in the last two years, must act now to add $500 per eligible child under the age of 17 to that payment.

However, according to IRS COVID Tax Tip 2020-40, if you miss the deadline, the payment will be $1,200 and, by law, the additional $500 per eligible child amount would be paid in association with a return filing for tax year 2020.

3 Reasons Your Stimulus Payment May Be Delayed

1. You didn’t file a tax return for 2018 or 2019 — or you filed one but didn’t get a refund

If you filed your 2018 or 2019 taxes, were due a refund, and signed up to receive that money via direct deposit, you may already be sitting on your stimulus payment. But if you didn’t file a 2018 or 2019 tax return, or you filed one but weren’t due a refund and therefore didn’t include bank account details, then you’ll need to give the IRS that information so your stimulus payment can be processed quickly.

2. Your money went to an old bank account

The most recent bank account information the IRS has on file will be used to determine where your stimulus payment should land. But if you’ve since closed that account, any stimulus money that gets sent there will be bounced back, thereby delaying your payment

3. You’re still waiting on a physical check

If the IRS doesn’t have bank account details for you on file, and you have no intention of providing direct deposit information, then you’ll need to wait for a physical stimulus check to arrive in your mailbox. And that could take a while. It’s anticipated that physical checks will start getting sent out in early May, but only a certain number will be issued per week. Meanwhile, those paper checks will be prioritized so that low-income households receive them first, and all told, it could take up to 20 weeks to mail all of them out.

Los Angeles Traffic Lights Adjusted To Prevent Unsafe Speeds During Pandemic.

Traffic lights in Los Angeles have been adjusted to attempt to reduce speeding on the uncongested streets during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Los Angeles Department of Transportation announced Wednesday.

Traffic signals across the city have been indefinitely put on “nighttime mode,” which allow them to operate independently to serve cars as they arrive, instead of coordinating automatically to ease traffic congestion, LADOT said.

This will prevent drivers from speeding through consecutive intersections without any red lights stopping them.

Who can file a “simple” return?

What is a ‘Simple” Return?
A “simple” return is a quick way to submit information to the IRS for the sole purpose of getting stimulus money. Only qualifying taxpayers without a filing requirement and did not file federal returns for 2019 and 2018 will need to file a “simple” return in order to receive stimulus money.

To file a “simple” return you will need the following information:

  1. Full name and valid work SSN of taxpayer (and spouse if filing jointly)
  2. Current address
  3. Name, SSNs (or ATINs), and relationship of children under age 17. Children with ITINs do not qualify for stimulus money.
  4. Bank account information if requesting direct deposit.
  5. Determine if the taxpayer is married or single. Only a filing status of “single” or “married filing joint” is allowed.

Social Security recipients no Action is required

In the coming weeks the Treasury Department plans to distribute automatically economic impact (stimulus) payments, with no action required for most people. Social Security recipients and railroad retirees who are otherwise not required to file a tax return are automatically eligible and will not be required to file a return. However, some individuals such as low-income workers and certain veterans and individuals with disabilities who typically do not file returns will need to submit a “simple” tax return to receive stimulus money.

If you need to file a simple return please call us at 818 899-9617

¿Quién no recibe un cheque?

El pago se reduce en un cinco por ciento de cada dólar por encima de la marca de ingresos de $ 75,000 por año y las personas que ganan más de $ 99,000 y las parejas con un ingreso combinado de más de $ 198,000 no calificarán. Los contribuyentes conjuntos que $ 198,000 o más por año también están exentos de recibir el pago.

Según el progressive Economic Policy Institute, los inmigrantes que presenten impuestos utilizando un Número de Identificación de Contribuyente Individual (ITIN) en lugar de un Número de Seguro Social estarán exentos de pagos, lo que según la institución excluye a un estimado adicional de 4.3 millones de adultos y 3.5 millones de niños. del beneficio Los cheques únicos también irán solo a aquellos estadounidenses que hayan presentado una declaración de impuestos este año o en 2019.

When are stimulus checks coming? Money set to roll out to Americans next week

Americans have received conflicting information on when they will receive stimulus checks due to the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic. But there’s good news: Checks will be hitting their bank accounts soon. 

Automatic payments are set to begin next week. Eligible taxpayers who filed tax returns for either 2019 or 2018 and chose direct deposit for their refund will automatically receive a stimulus payment of up to $1,200 for individuals or $2,400 for married couples and $500 for each qualifying child, the IRS said Friday. 

What if I did not file a return in 2018 or 2019 ?

The non-filer tool provides a free option designed for people who don’t normally file a tax return, including those with too little income to file. The IRS said stimulus payments will be distributed to most Americans starting next week.
