Eligible Americans to Receive $1,300 Stimulus Checks in March

The Minnesota Department of Revenue uses these checks to support local communities financially, and these checks will not be taxed.

$1,300 Stimulus Checks in March: As a result of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, a large number of Americans will receive a $1,300 stimulus payment.

These checks will not be available to everyone, however.

Who is receiving these stimulus checks?

The Minnesota Department of Revenue is providing this money to people who did not cash their tax refund checks last year.

Approximately 128,000 people should receive one-time payments of $1,300 by mid-March if their refund checks were not cashed.

  • A single taxpayer with income up to $75,000 could receive $260 in tax relief.

  • Additionally, each dependent is entitled to an additional $260.

Families with five dependent children may even qualify for up to $1,300 in assistance.

Keeping track of your stimulus check

You can check the status of your check through the IRS’s Get My Payment tool.

To use it, you will need to provide some personal information. The IRS updates it daily to keep you informed.

Is your stimulus check delayed for any reason?

  • Higher-income individuals may have to wait longer since lower-income families are given priority.

  • Your payment may be delayed if the IRS does not have your current bank information. The IRS sends payments using your most recent tax return.

  • Banks occasionally mishandle deposits.

  • It could also delay things if there is confusion about dependents (such as with unmarried parents).
