The Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) confirmed more than 80 million people will begin to receive stimulus payments—part of the $2.2 trillion bill passed by Congress last month—by Wednesday, April 15, in an attempt to offset losses suffered during the CCP virus pandemic.
These payments will be automatically sent to eligible 2019 or 2018 federal tax return filers who got a refund using a direct deposit, according to a news release from the agency on Monday.
