The third Economic Impact Payment is based on the taxpayer's latest processed tax return from either 2020 or 2019. This includes anyone who successfully registered at IRS.gov using the agency's Non-Filers tool last year or submitted a simplified tax return. If the IRS received and processed a taxpayer's 2020 return before issuing someone’s third Economic Impact Payment, the amount is based on the 2020 return.
Those who received the first or second payment but don't receive a payment by direct deposit will generally receive a check or a prepaid debit card, referred to as an EIP Card. The IRS will not add the third payment to an existing EIP card that people received for the first or second round of stimulus payments.
Under the new law, the IRS can’t apply the third Economic Impact Payment to past-due federal debts or back taxes.
