Re: $1200 Payout. Are immigrants eligible?
As I understand it, if a check is not received (but should have), that can be sorted out during tax filing season (2020 - round 1; 2021 - round 2).
Since they prioritized getting the money out vs eligibility, many many checks were sent regardless of immigration status (limited to those with a TIN or SSN). Due to level of effort involved to claw it back, I highly doubt it will ever be chased up.

Ours shows as pending to be deposited 1/1/21.
Which I assume actually means it'll be in the bank Monday.

'Get my payment' at IRS.gov appears to be offline for me. Anyone else seeing the same?

Does anyone know of an accurate online calculator for what we should expect? I tried a couple and they gave me quite different answers.

The payment tracking thing on the IRS website is working again.

Our $1,200 will go straight to the food bank, just like the $2,400 we got last year. The administrator of the food bank told us she got innumerable checks for 2.4K last spring/summer. And this is not a wealthy county!
