| [The Hill] Americans who qualified for the $1200 cash payment, a cornerstone of Congress's $2.2 trillion coronavirus stimulus package, are starting to receive their money through direct deposit. Late last month, President Trump signed the CARES Act into law, a coronavirus relief package that promises to provide one-time checks to some, set aside money for small business loans and provides funding for corporations hit hard by the virus, among other provisions. "#IRS deposited the first Economic Impact Payments into taxpayers’ bank accounts today," The Internal Revenue Service tweeted Saturday evening. "We know many people are anxious to get their payments; we’ll continue issuing them as fast as we can." |
