The Internal Revenue Service and Treasury Department announced Dec. 29 that they would begin delivering a second round of Economic Impact Payments as part of the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021.

The IRS said that direct deposit payments would begin at the end of December, and paper checks will be mailed Wednesday.

Those whose information is on file with the IRS for tax information will receive the money via direct deposit.

Tax filers will also receive $600 for each dependent under age 17, and there's no cap on the number a household can receive, according to the Tax Foundation.
