It remains unclear when Americans may receive stimulus checks. Here are the latest updates in regards to the checks including statements from Trump.

Here’s the latest on proposed 2026 stimulus checks, including tariff dividend plans, DOGE payments, military bonuses, and expired COVID relief credits.

The Supreme Court ruled Trump's tariffs were unconstitutional. Here's what this means for his proposed $2,000 stimulus checks funded by tariffs.

Claims about new stimulus checks, IRS direct deposits, relief payments and tariff dividends spread throughout 2025 — and they’re still circulating in 2026. But is there any truth to them?

As the question of new stimulus checks in 2026 circulates among millions of families, understanding potential triggers is crucial. While no federal payments are currently approved, certain economic scenarios could pave the way for direct aid.

On Jan. 11, Trump claimed that $2,000 stimulus checks could be sent to Americans "toward the end of the year."

Trump announced in November that “a dividend of at least $2,000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone” using revenue collected from his sweeping tariffs. He later said that any leftover money would be used to “SUBSTANTIALLY” pay down the nation’s around $38 trillion national debt.

He asked Americans to forget about the stimulus checks until the tariffs issue is dealt with.
