    They said 2 weeks. 
    No, it is not considered income.

    No. It will be like a tax refund - not taxable.

    If you don't have direct deposit, you may have to wait longer than two weeks.  The first checks are going out to people whose checks are direct deposited.

  • Stimulus check will not be income.  It's being considered an advance of a 2020 tax credit.

    Pearl, you will get the stimulus money the same way you get your SSI payment.  If you receive a check for  your SSI, you'll get a check in the mail.  If you have SSI directly put into your bank account, the stimulus money will be direct deposited as well.
