During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sent out three rounds of economic impact payments or stimulus checks.
Qualifying Americans typically received between $1,200 and $1,400 for each stimulus check. The last payments went out in March 2021.
But there’s been a recent spike in Google searches about another round of IRS stimulus checks for $8,700. VERIFY also found multiple articles that claim there will be a new $8,700 stimulus check from the IRS.
One of the websites says the new checks are being sent out “as part of a broader initiative to stimulate the economy and assist individuals coping with financial difficulties during the epidemic.” Some websites also claim the payments are connected to the child tax credit, which is a tax incentive for parents.
The sites generally claim the payments are going out in mid-June.
