Do SSI Beneficiaries Need to File a Tax Return to Get a Stimulus Check?
The IRS has launched an online tool recipient of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) may use to register to get their stimulus checks. Whether or not SSI recipients would need to file a 2019 federal tax return in order to receive a stimulus check has caused confusion and consternation as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) works to develop guidelines and systems for disbursing economic impact payments.
After initially announcing that some individuals, including Social Security recipients who typically aren't required to file tax returns, would need to file a “simple” tax return to receive a stimulus payment, the IRS reversed course on April 1 after encountering criticism from AARP, lawmakers, seniors and other advocacy groups. The agency announced instead that Social Security recipients and railroad retirees who hadn't filed tax returns for 2018 or 2019 would automatically receive a $1,200 payment (the maximum for individuals) the same way they receive monthly benefits. The vast majority of Social Security recipients get benefits via direct deposit into a bank account.
