Holiday Stimulus

Holiday Stimulus

If the Illinois House of Representatives passes this legislation, single taxpayers could receive a $200 check.

Precisely, single filers earning less than $75,000 could be given a $200 payment as Republican lawmakers are pushing it.

Also, couples who earn under $150,000 are qualified for $400.

The proposal is purported to be provided to residents before Christmas through Joe Biden’s American Rescue Plan.

Legislators hope to help residents by offering an extra week of groceries or bills if their proposal is approved.

In the wake of the pandemic, many states including Illinois have put in the effort to help their residents.

California, Florida, Alaska, Washington DC, Colorado, New York City, New Mexico, Maryland, and more have extended relief assistance to their residents since the pandemic has hit.

Where Else are Residents of Other States Receiving Stimulus Payments?

More than 500,000 Maine workers are to receive $285 payments after working through the pandemic.
