Stimulus payments and $600 unemployment monthly checks are included in the scaled-back $2.2 trillion COVID-19 relief package unveiled by the House Democrats on Monday, September 28.
Stimulus checks have already been sent out to millions of Americans but according to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), there are still about nine million who have not claimed their Economic Impact Payments (EIP).
To help weather the recession as a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, a second round of stimulus checks may be sent to eligible Americans as early as August based on the Senate's calendar.
