The Social Security Administration announced
last week that Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients will receive
automatic Economic Impact Payments directly from the Treasury Department. The
Treasury Dept. anticipates these automatic payments no later than early May.
SSI recipients who have qualifying children
under age 17, however, should not wait for their automatic $1,200 individual
payment. They need to visit the IRS
homepage and visit the non-filers section.
