It remains unclear when Americans may receive stimulus checks. Here are the latest updates in regards to the checks including statements from Trump.

Are we getting a stimulus check in February 2026? When and what to know about Trump $2000 tariff IRS refund status, eligibility, and odds you get it.

President Trump previously suggested issuing "tariff dividend" checks. After the Supreme Court struck down his tariffs policy, that's unlikely, experts say.

Stimulus checks remain uncertain after Trump says he hasn’t committed to $2,000 payments. Here’s what we know now.

Trump announced in November that “a dividend of at least $2,000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone” using revenue collected from his sweeping tariffs. He later said that any leftover money would be used to “SUBSTANTIALLY” pay down the nation’s around $38 trillion national debt.

Trump has walked all over Congress but prior presidents of both parties have stretched the bounds of emergency powers.
