The Internal Revenue Service has just launched a new web tool allowing registration for Economic Impact Payments for people who don’t normally file a tax return.

The non-filer tool, developed in partnership between the IRS and the Free File Alliance, provides a free and easy option for people who don't have a tax return filing obligation, including those with too little income to file. This tool is available ONLY on IRS.gov, here:

Economic Impact Payments will be distributed automatically to most people starting next week (April 13-17). Eligible taxpayers who filed tax returns for 2019 or 2018 will receive the payments automatically. Automatic payments will also go in the near future to people who receive Social Security retirement, survivors or disability benefits and Railroad Retirement benefits.
