Do I need to file 2018 and 2019 for stimulus?
John Peck
If you filed a tax return in 2018 or receive Social Security income, Railroad Retirement benefits, Supplemental Security Income, VA benefits, or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), you don’t have to file your 2019 taxes to get a stimulus check (also known as an economic impact payment or EIP).
Will I get a stimulus check if I didn’t file 2018 taxes?
Dear Late Filers, The stimulus check is an advance payment of a 2020 tax credit, so the IRS will take into account 2018 tax returns, if file before Dec. 31, 2020. If you have not filed your 2018 return, it’s not too late to file now. You may, however, face a late-payment fee.
