Will You Receive the 1750 Stimulus Check in 2024? Full Eligibility Breakdown

1. State-Specific Programs

In the past few years, many states have started their own rebate or stimulus programs, and some are planning to start giving money in 2024. People who qualify may be able to get checks for up to $1,750 through some of these state-level programs. Here’s what we know about the rules for getting into these state programs:

• Income Limits: States typically target low- and middle-income households for these checks. Income thresholds vary, but if your income falls within the qualifying range, you may be eligible to receive the payment.
• Tax Filers: In many cases, to be eligible for the $1,750 payment, you must have filed a state income tax return. The rebate amount is often tied to your tax filing status (individual or joint) and the number of dependents you have.
• Residency Requirements: Some states may require that you be a resident for a certain period, often a full tax year, in order to qualify for the rebate.

In the past, states like California, New Mexico, and Colorado have had programs like this that gave residents rebates in the form of direct payments. If programs like these start up again in 2024, you might be able to get a check if these conditions are met.

2. Federal Stimulus Payment Proposals

There have been talks among lawmakers at the federal level about giving Americans more economic relief. Some plans call for direct payments of up to $1,750 to each person or family, especially to those who are having a hard time paying their bills because of inflation or economic downturns.

• Income Criteria: In federal proposals, the eligibility for the $1,750 check could depend on your adjusted gross income (AGI). Those with a lower AGI will likely be prioritized, while higher-income earners may not qualify or may receive a smaller payment.
• Dependents: Households with children or other dependents may receive larger payments, which is why many programs tie rebate amounts to family size.

However, these federal proposals are not official yet, and lawmakers would have to pass specific legislation before any more stimulus payments could be made. For now, the focus is still on possible payments to states.

When Will Payments Arrive?

How long it takes to get a $1,750 stimulus check will depend on whether the payment is part of a federal law or a state program.

• State Payments: If the payment is part of a state stimulus or rebate program, payments could be issued as early as spring or summer 2024, depending on the timeline for each state’s budget and administrative processes. Some states may send checks via direct deposit, while others may issue paper checks.
• Federal Payments: If Congress passes new legislation for a federal stimulus check in 2024, the timeline would depend on the passage of the bill. If approved, it could take a few months for the IRS to process payments, and it could take additional time for funds to reach recipients.

If you are eligible, direct deposit payments will usually be the fastest way to get your money. Paper checks may take a few extra weeks to process and deliver.

How to Stay Updated

If you want to be eligible for a $1,750 stimulus check in 2024, you should keep up with news and updates from the federal and state governments. The best way to keep up with the news is to:

1. Check State Government Websites: States that have proposed or previously issued stimulus checks often post updates on their official government websites. For example, if you live in California or Colorado, regularly check the Department of Tax and Fee Administration or the Department of Revenue.
2. Follow News Outlets: Keep an eye on news reports from local news stations and national news outlets. Major updates on federal legislation, including potential stimulus checks, will be widely reported.
3. Tax Filing: If state or federal stimulus payments are linked to tax filings, ensure that your tax returns are filed correctly and on time. Failure to do so could delay or disqualify you from receiving the check.
4. Social Media: Follow official social media accounts for state and federal agencies like the IRS or your state’s revenue department for real-time updates.
