We Will Get Through This Together!!! |

Every state within the United States has experience at least one coronavirus patient, and for some states the numbers are staggering and devastating. Most of us are restricted from engaging in our normal work and home routines, which as impacted our personal activity, family relationship and financial stability.
The government (Federal & State) have implemented various programs to help Businesses and Individuals. It would be too much for me to list everything here.
We have updated the website with information pertaining to the “Economic Impact Payment“, SBA Loans, Payroll Protection Program and much more.

Economic Impact Payment Begin |
Automatic payments begin
Eligible taxpayers who filed tax returns for either 2019 or 2018 and chose direct deposit of their refund will automatically receive an Economic Impact Payment of up to $1,200 for individuals or $2,400 for married couples and $500 for each qualifying child. Individuals who receive Social Security retirement, survivors or disability benefits, SSDI or who receive Railroad Retirement benefits but did not file a return for 2019 or 2018 will automatically receive a payment in the near future. CHECKS ARE BEING DEPOSITED – CHECK YOUR BANK ACCOUNT
Coming next week: Get My Payment shows Economic Impact Payment date, helps with direct deposit.
To help everyone check on the status of their payments, the IRS is building a second new tool expected to be available for use by April 17. Get My Payment will provide people with the status of their payment, including the date their payment is scheduled to be deposited into their bank account or mailed to them.

U.S. residents will receive the Economic Impact Payment of $1,200 for individual or head of household filers, and $2,400 for married filing jointly if they are not a dependent of another taxpayer and have a work eligible Social Security number with adjusted gross income up to:
- $75,000 for individuals
- $112,500 for head of household filers and
- $150,000 for married couples filing joint returns
Taxpayers will receive a reduced payment if their AGI is between:
- $75,000 and $99,000 if their filing status was single or married filing separately
- 112,500 and $136,500 for head of household
- $150,000 and $198,000 if their filing status was married filing jointly
The amount of the reduced payment will be based upon the taxpayers specific adjusted gross income.
Eligible retirees and recipients of Social Security, Railroad Retirement, disability or veterans’ benefits as well as taxpayers who do not make enough money to normally have to file a tax return will receive a payment. This also includes those who have no income, as well as those whose income comes entirely from certain benefit programs, such as Supplemental Security Income benefits.
Retirees who receive either Social Security retirement or Railroad Retirement benefits will also receive payments automatically.

This includes people who had no income or if you weren’t required to file a 2018 or 2019 federal income tax return for other reasons. If you receive these benefits, we already have your information and you will receive $1,200.
