Calculate How Much Money You'll Get From Stimulus Deal

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. government is set to send checks and direct deposits to Americans across the nation in an effort to help financially as the ongoing new coronavirus crisis continues to cripple the economy.

Late Wednesday evening, the Senate passed bipartisan legislation, which still must pass the House, that would provide payments to adults with annual incomes up to $75,000 and an additional $500 per child.

The majority of qualifying Americans are expected to receive a direct deposit sometime in April.

The amount of money you'll receive is dependent on factors such as your adjusted gross income in 2018, how many children you claim as dependents, what your filing status is in your 2018 taxes and whether you've filed 2019 taxes yet.

The Washington Post has created a tool to let people calculate the expected amount of money they'll receive from the stimulus package.

Using the stimulus calculator, a married person who made $45,000 in 2018, and also has one child and hasn't filed their 2019 taxes yet, would likely get a $2,900 stimulus payment.
