Dear Providers and Partners,

Amid this public health and economic crisis, many of you have inquired about how federal stimulus rebate payments can assist the people that we serve. We encourage you to review the following fact sheet  for more information on who is eligible for these payments and how to redeem them.

We also encourage you to work with your clients to ensure that if they are eligible for the payment but have not filed a tax return for 2018 or 2019, they do so  using this form  released by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) last week.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Atef Beshay, abeshay@lahsa.org.
