Third Stimulus (Economic Impact Payment) information from

www.IRS.gov/coronavirus/third-economic-impact-payment

Eligibility
Most eligible people didn't need to take additional action to get a third payment.

Generally, someone was eligible for the full amount of the third Economic Impact Payment if they:

 are a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien (and their spouse if filing a joint return), and
 are not a dependent of another taxpayer, and
 had adjusted gross income (AGI) that is not more than:
o $150,000 if married and filing a joint return or if filing as a qualifying widow or widower
o $112,500 if filing as head of household or
o $75,000 for any other filing status

Payments were phased out – or reduced – above those AGI amounts. This means people did not receive a payment if their AGI was at
least:

 $160,000 if married and filing a joint return or if filing as a qualifying widow or widower
 $120,000 if filing as head of household
 $80,000 for any other filing status

Amount of Third Economic Impact Payment

The third Economic Impact Payment amount was:

 $1,400 for an eligible individual with a valid Social Security number ($2,800 for married couples filing a joint return if both
spouses have a valid Social Security number or if one spouse has a valid Social Security number and one spouse was an
active member of the U.S. Armed Forces at any time during the taxable year)
 $1,400 for each qualifying dependent with a valid Social Security number or Adoption Taxpayer Identification Number
issued by the IRS

Getting Your Payment

Most eligible individuals received their third Economic Impact Payment automatically and didn't need to take additional action. The
IRS used available information to determine your eligibility and issue the third payment to people who:

 filed a 2020 tax return

 filed a 2019 tax return if the 2020 tax return had not been submitted or processed yet
 did not file a 2020 or 2019 tax return but registered for the first Economic Impact Payment with the Non-Filers tool in 2020
 registered through the 2021 Child Tax Credit Non-filer Sign-up Tool
 are federal benefit recipients who do not usually file a tax return.

If you determine that you were eligible to receive the third economic impact payment because you met the above requirements, but
you did not receive payment because it was lost, stolen, destroyed, or not received for another reason, you should request a payment
trace so the IRS can determine if your payment was cashed. If it was not, the IRS will credit your account for the payment, but they
cannot reissue payments. This will allow you to claim the 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2021 tax return if eligible.

Do not request a payment trace to determine if you were eligible for a payment or to confirm the amount of
payment you should have received.
