The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has extended the deadline to register for an Economic Impact Payment to November 21, 2020 from October 15. The IRS announced the extended deadline through a press release October 5, 2020. The IRS announcement can be read in full HERE.
The IRS urges people who don’t typically file a tax return – and haven’t received an Economic Impact Payment – to register as quickly as possible using the Non-Filers: Enter Info Here tool on IRS.gov. The tool will not be available after November 21.
This additional time into November is solely for those who have not received their EIP and don’t normally file a tax return. For taxpayers who requested an extension of time to file their 2019 tax return, that deadline date remains October 15.
We are in this together,
