Your COVID-19 Relief Check is in the Mail! (Well, maybe. It depends.........)

President Trump signed the massive coronavirus relief bill last week. Money will be distributed to the public by the IRS. So will the IRS offset what I owe against the check? What about my spouse?

Here are some specific takeaways that you need to know now, and take appropriate action:

1. The government is using the IRS to distribute the checks only. They will not offset any IRS debts against the checks as this is not an IRS matter. The government is just using their infrastructure.

2. However, the only exception to this rule is child support obligations. If you owe back child support, it will come out of the check. This is the only exception at this time.

3. The only way the IRS will know about you is if you have filed a return in 2018 or for 2019. If you have not filed for 2018, and have not filed 2019, you will not receive a check. 


In order to receive a check you must file a return for either of those years. 

We love working with taxpayers who are delinquent filers. This is a judgment free zone. We will work with you to get this done. Call now so that you will receive your check.

Note that if you would normally file a joint return with your spouse and have children, all of you will lose out on the recovery checks. This is thousands of dollars you are walking away from.

Don't lose out - call now for help.
