The IRS takes new steps to ensure people with children receive $500 Economic Impact Payments
Reading Time: 1 MinuteLast Updated: August 17, 2020
The IRS has extended its deadline to September 30, 2020 to provide information to the IRS using its IRS’ Non-Filer Tool if you:
- Receive Social Security retirement, survivors, or disability benefits, or SSI payments.
- Did not file a 2019 or 2018 tax return.
- Have a qualifying child under age 17.
- You did not already enter information in the IRS’ Non-Filer Tool for you and at least one child.
If you already entered information in the IRS’ Non-Filer Tool before and even after the IRS’ previously announced deadlines (April 22 if you receive Social Security; May 5 if you receive SSI), you do not need to do anything. The IRS will automatically make a payment in October based on the information you provided them.
Please read the IRS’ August 14 press release for more details.

Why did our 17 and up children who still get claimed by parents not get any money most of them are the seniors who lost their senior year of high school because of this pandemic.
