Special alert for VA, SSI recipients who don’t file a tax return and have dependents

VA, SSI recipients with eligible children need to act by May 5 to quickly add money to their automatic Economic Impact Payment; ‘Plus $500 Push’ continues

If you didn’t file a 2018 or 2019 income tax return, please read this. The IRS may have your banking information because you receive a direct deposit of either your VA benefits or your SSI benefits. However, there is no way they know if you have a dependent child  under the age of 17 unless you tell them.
