Are we getting a stimulus check 2026? Here's status update on Trump's $2000 tariff stimulus checks, how to track IRS refund by social security number

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

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?

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

A White House official said Trump is "committed" to following through on the dividend. But there's still no plan.

Absent any real action to address affordability, Trump and his allies usually turn to his preferred backup plan: culture wars and racism. Hence the renewed GOP scaremongering about sharia law; congressional investigations into Bad Bunny; and violent immigration raids targeting the “worst of the worst” preschoolers.
