The Treasury Department is about to finalize the payments of $ 600 for the second round of economic stimulus measures, before which they explained during an informational session the steps to be followed by those people who do not fill out the form but the first received an incentive of $ 1,200 to fill directly with the IRS.
According to the deputy secretary of the Internal Revenue of the Treasury, Roxanna Santiago, this process should take place through the filing of the next 2020 tax return.
Next week, this form should be available for electronic filing and “even if it is a person not submitting a file” you can claim $ 600 with it.
Undersecretary of Finance, Angel Pantoja, explained that the 2020 payroll includes a specific schedule to “get that hold” of people who received nothing or less than stated.
“We can reconcile a number of situations in the payroll for 2020. It will be schedule B-3,” said Pantoja.
On the other hand, Santiago said the procedure is consistent with what the IRS is doing in the United States.
The agency’s secretary, Francisco Parés, emphasized that 44,000 people who received the $ 1,200 payment, according to his 2018 payroll, did not receive the second aid. “That group did not receive the check for $ 600 because they failed to file the 2019 return. At this final stage of the aid distribution, the recommendation is to file the 2020 return and claim it as a refundable credit,” said he.
At the end of the payout period this week, citizens who can receive the aid and who are still waiting must claim it as a refundable credit on the income tax return for the year 2020, which will be available the last week of this month of February. .
“This final at bat is for anyone who needs to reconcile stimulus payments, including non-radicals. The Income Tax form 2020 includes Schedule B3 Individual, where you can indicate which benefits you have not received, which you have received incomplete and changes to your family composition, including allowing you to receive the money, ”he added.
Regarding the possibility of delaying the 2020 form submission date, he said that the work plan currently maintains the April 15 date. “In the event that additional financial support is identified in Congress, that would be a factor that would prompt us to consider the possibility of postponing the date,” he said.
Finally, he urged citizens to ensure that what is stated on the form, such as social security numbers and full names, is correct to avoid delays and errors.
