Second Stimulus Check Calculator - CASH Act FAQ
- Does this calculator guarantee I will receive a stimulus check?
- No, this tool estimates amounts based on the CASH Act proposal, which was not enacted as proposed. Actual stimulus payments were determined by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021, which provided $600 per eligible individual.
- What income level qualifies for the full CASH Act amount?
- The calculator uses 2019 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) to determine eligibility, but the material does not specify exact income thresholds for full versus reduced payments under the CASH Act proposal.
- Can I use this calculator if I did not file 2019 taxes?
- The tool indicates that you do not need to have paid recent taxes, but you must have filed paperwork or fall under special eligibility categories such as receiving SSI to qualify for a payout under the CASH Act parameters.
- How does the calculator handle dependents over age 17?
- The calculator includes a specific field for 'How many dependents under 17?' suggesting that only dependents under age 17 are counted toward the estimated amount, while total dependents are also tracked separately.
