According to The US Sun, Americans who may have missed out on previous stimulus payments during the COVID-19 pandemic still have a chance to claim a $1,400 Recovery Rebate Credit from the IRS. This credit aimed at providing economic relief is available to eligible taxpayers who meet specific criteria. To qualify for the $1,400 credit individuals must fulfill three main conditions. First they must have been a U.S. citizen in 2021. Second they should not have been claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer in 2021. Third they must possess a valid Social Security number issued before the due date or claim a dependent who also has a Social Security number or an Adoption Taxpayer Identification Number.

While many Americans received their stimulus payouts in 2020 and 2021 those who were not eligible or did not get any money at all can apply for their monies through the Recovery Rebate Credit. You can receive this refundable credit by submitting your 2021 tax return by the relevant deadline. The option to claim the 2020 payouts has expired for individuals who missed the deadline. But those who missed out on a stimulus check in 2021 still have until April 15, 2025 to file their taxes in order to be eligible for the $1,400 credit. The credit’s amount fluctuates according to one’s income level. AGI of $75,000 or less qualifies single filers for the entire $1,400 credit married couples filing jointly may earn up to $2,800 if their AGI is less than $150,000. The higher one gets the less credit one receives; joint filers making more than $198,000 are not eligible for any award.
