Old Stimulus?

[stgislander]

I received a letter from the IRS today stating that my wife and I are receiving "a second economic impact payment (EIP2) as provided by the COVID-related Tax Relief Act of 2020." The amount is $1200 and is not considered taxable income.

Any idea if this something different from the $1400 we are supposed to be getting?

I should add the letter is dated March 5, 2021.

That is for the $600 each that was done in December. By law, they have to send a letter to state you are receiving it, but they are way behind in sending the letter. The idea is, that if you got a letter but not the money, you'd know to ask questions. You'll be getting another letter after this current stimulus as well.

Yes .... the 1200 was from the 2nd Covid Relief

Same with us. It was confusing when it showed up last week.
