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.
