The Coronavirus $1,200 stimulus check, are only for US citizens?

Here's who won't get a stimulus check:

• Children who are 17 or 18 years old.
• Many college students between the ages of 19 to 23.
• Adults who can be claimed as dependents.
• Nonresident aliens (in other words, those without a green card).
• Estates. 
• Individuals who earn more than $99,000 or married couples earning more than $198,000.
• People who haven't filed 2018 and 2019 tax returns.

Did you file 1040 NR or 1040EZ/A? How long have you been here? What status? F1 status need to wait for 5 years even before u file as an resident alien.

Here is the detailed info

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions that were compiled by Democratic committee staff:

Who qualifies to receive a check and how much will an individual receive?

Today In: Taxes

What are qualified income levels based off of?

There is no qualified income threshold or requirement to receive the rebate. However, the rebate phases out at a 5 percent rate above adjusted gross incomes of $75,000 for single filers, $112,500 for heads of household, and $150,000 for joint filers.

Can those collecting Social Security or disability receive a check?

Yes, if they filed a tax return this year or last year, or received a form SSA-1099. Otherwise, they need to file a tax return.

How does an individual claim their check?

They do not need to claim their checks (unless they have not either filed a tax return this year or last year) – IRS will send out rebates automatically to their direct deposit or to the address provided on the last tax return submitted.

How long will it take for this check to be delivered?

Rebates sent via direct deposit will take a few weeks. Rebates sent via checks may take a few months.

Will I be taxed on this check?

No, rebates are not taxable.

Will I be eligible if I haven’t finished filing my 2018 taxes?

You need to have filed either a 2018 tax return or a 2019 tax return. If you have not filed either, you will not be eligible. You can file a 2019 tax return now to claim the rebate.

Will I be eligible if I have a lien against me, but I am in non-collect status?

Yes. Rebates will not be subject to garnishment, except if back child support is owed.

I withdrew my retirement in 2018- so my income that year was inflated. Is there any waiver for one time sources of income?

In this case, the taxpayer should file a 2019 tax return.

@ Ram bahadoor,
Dont just copy and paste. Read and understand first . How long have you lived in states ?? The check is for the ppl who have been filing taxes for more than 5 yrs. IRS does not know whether you are legal or illegal...

Oh Seto Kamila, you don’t have to file taxes for Last 5 years. Haha don’t be a Sajha lawyer lol. Just filing in 2018 or 2019 would make u eligible as long as you did not hit the cap. I’m not taking for GC or citizenship, but they still have to have earnings in 2018 Atleas. GC automatically file 1040 A. But when u apply immigration benefits , you have to submit your tax transkript, for last 3-5 years for example H1b, dependent visa such as H2, OpT- GC and so on. Don’t tell here so and so , you not a lawyer. A F1 student just arrived here in 2019 November could mistakenly filed 1040 EZ. When they should have filed 1040NR. Things like that. DHS/ IRS knows people file as a resident as because you get various stimulus and work credit and so on. It is fraud to mark as a resident alien , when you are a non resident.
What if you get on a random IRS audit?

Get you shit together, may be research more. People like you, who Hide your ass behind the computer and act like u know it all, when in reality you know nothing buddy. You are all about lies and misinformation. After I caught your lies, you little fu****er going around make it personal. Suck it up! Take a chill pill, and accept that you don’t what ya talkin’ about. BTW just go back and edit the post, delete all out- you look stupid. Next time don’t post anything that you not sure about.

Ram bahadoor is a boka ... lmfao .....

Seto Kamila now get lost from this thread. I created the new one. Go to the new thread and learn something. I’m quiz you tomorrow.

Should I get $1200 in my account if I’m married but filed separately tax last year In 2018. I’m divorced in 2019.

Oho Muna Ji, chinta na linus aauchha dilo chado. Baru yo barsa ko ni tax file gari dinus, gari saknu va chaina vane . It puts latest information in record .

Ani tapai pani divorce hunu hudo raichha , ma pani testai hoo. Yo quarentin ko bela ma, yeso bolna/chat garnu man lage yeso message pau hai. Weekend tira khali nai hunchhu ma. Hami dui sathi bani halchum ki ke tha 🙂.

Hi Muna ji, This thread is getting too complicated here, just go to new one that I have created. If you were divorced in 2019, then you should have filed as single for the year 2019. Meeraj is right, just file the 2019 so they will have correct name, address and bank info. Have you filed your taxes for 2019 year? Let me be clear here, In 2018 you filed married with separately, did you guys use joint account to get refund?  If you have not filed for the year 2019, we need to hire a lawyer to get the money back- don’t worry I do paralegal too! I know few lawyers around. Just message me here

I filed on 2019 and paid $400 to IRS from my bank account. Just came from Nepal and the filing date is postponed so yet to file for 2019.

@ Logan why do you have to hijack this post. It’s just a informative man. I know what exactly you thinking!!
Let’s get back to Muna ji, I been hearing that if your earning was more than 45K-75K stimulas might be delay until July-August, If u made more than 90K, u might get in Aug/Sep. Priorities are given to those people who made than 20K last year. Do the math, compare how much u made in 2018 to 2019 and decide. U made more in 2019- don’t do anything, u made less in 2019- file it ASAP.

Huna ta yo thread hijack/sidetrack na garnu parne hoo, tara @logan Ji please "बिधुर" vanne sabdha chai prayog na garidum na la. Some words associate with just not the person who you are referring, but also to third person who is not involved at all. Its not a word to be used in dark times like this.

And to bring thread back in track. @ munaji, tapai ko cheque chitti aaula jasto chha. Ani tapai lai yeso help chaiyo analysis/research garnu vane, message garnu aaftero na mannau hola, we can help each other .

Long time ago a genuine student wanted get some help for her ph. D and that post was gone down to floor.
I do not think any people log on with female name are with balls.

If we lost a job this 1200 is not going to help much . Is it ? Free money to those who had not lost job.

@ Logan How long ago? U mean 15 years ago....May be all Of us were busy working n school. u know they did not have lockdown then. If anyone lost job by any chance, don’t feel bad filing unemployment. I’m 100% sure that this will not affect your future immigration benefits. I feel you 1200 is nothing; I’m take it whatever I could get.
