New stimulus checks could arrive soon and here is the timeline
As President Donald Trump advocates for new stimulus measures in 2025, Americans may soon see additional federal payments. Economic discussions are ongoing, with updates suggesting that checks could be distributed as early as June.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, most Americans received multiple stimulus checks to relieve the financial pressure caused by the pandemic-related closures. These checks helped people to stabilize their finances and avoid financial disaster in the wake of closed businesses and mass layoffs.
No new federal stimulus checks are authorized for November 2025; Congress has not passed any new legislation, and the IRS has made no confirmation. President Donald Trump has proposed using tariff revenue to pay a dividend of at least $2,000 per person (excluding high-income individuals), but this is currently just a proposal.
President Donald Trump posted that Americans will receive $2,000 stimulus checks from tariff dividends. Here's what we know so far about the checks.
