The second round of CCP virus stimulus payments will be distributed in the next week, but some people expecting mailed, paper checks might have to wait up to 20 weeks to receive them.

Around 80 million people have already received up to $1,200 as part of the federal government’s $2.2 trillion stimulus package that was passed in Congress to offset economic losses suffered after numerous businesses closed down to reduce the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus. The first deposits were sent to people who had already provided the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) with deposit information in their 2018 or 2019 taxes.
