Economic Stimulus Checks for Disabled Veterans and their survivors

If you are receiving benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs for disability, pension or survivors; benefits you may be eligible for an economic stimulus check from the Federal government. The IRS and Treasury are joining up and working closely with the Department of VA and other beneficiary organizations to ensure that all eligible individuals know what to do to receive a stimulus check from the government.

The economic stimulus law, passed in February, allows recipients of certain veterans’ benefits to count for the qualifying income requirement of $3000 and therefore qualify for a stimulus check.

If you are eligible and do not normally file taxes, click here to see the 10-page informational package the IRS has put together. It includes a:

  • Sample form 1040A
  • Blank Form 1040A
  • Everything else needed to properly file taxes

Eligibility Requirements:
The basic eligibility requirements are as follows:

  • Individuals/families must have at least $3000 in qualifying income. This can be income from, or in combination with:
    • Social Security Benefits
    • VA Benefits
    • Railroad Retirement Benefits
    • Earned income
  • Must have a valid Social Security Number(s)
  • Individuals cannot be claimed as dependents or be eligible to be claimed as dependents on another individual’s tax return
  • Must file a 2007 tax form
