The money was part of a massive emergency spending package pass in the spring designed to offset financial losses due to the coronavirus pandemic, then in its initial months.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/2020\/04\/27\/irs-sets-new-may-5-deadline-to-get-info-from-veterans-who-missed-coronavirus-checks\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/5015594.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">IRS sets new May 5 deadline to get info from veterans who missed coronavirus checks<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The new announcement concerns disabled veterans with dependents who have not filed tax returns in recent years.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After Congress approved one-time payouts of up to $1,200 per person, the IRS struggled to get those stimulus checks to some veterans whose current address and bank account information was not up-to-date in their systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The agency eventually partnered with VA officials to use some veterans benefits records to help with that challenge, but could not identify all of the individuals who may have been eligible to receive the additional $500 child payments along with the other stimulus payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IRS officials set up a special registration site for veterans and other Americans who don\u2019t regularly file annual tax returns, but set a cutoff of early May to apply. Agency leaders said individuals who missed out on that deadline would have to wait until spring 2021 to receive the money as part of next year\u2019s income tax returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But late last week, IRS officials reopened the application process. Veterans who missed out on the child credits now have until Sept. 30 to register, with payouts expected to be delivered by mid-October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTo help with this, we are allocating additional IRS resources to ensure eligible recipients receive their full payments during this challenging time,\u201d IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, veterans who did not receive their $1,200 stimulus checks in the spring can also register with the department in an attempt to get that money this fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officials did not say how many veterans may still be eligible for the payouts, but advocates have said that the money could be a critical lifeline for low-income families facing new challenges related to closings of businesses, public offices and other community assistance programs related to coronavirus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IRS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/coronavirus\/non-filers-enter-payment-info-here\" target=_blank>non-filers tool is available on the agency\u2019s web site<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The IRS reopened the registration period for federal beneficiaries who didn&#39;t receive $500 per child payments earlier this year.
