Those disabled veterans \u2014 along with some Social Security recipients and other individuals who receive federal support benefits \u2014 were left out, since they did not have an up-to-date record and bank account on file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On April 17, VA and Treasury officials announced a deal to fix that problem, allowing for automatic payments through individuals\u2019 existing veterans benefits accounts. They said that would cover the $1,200 payouts, but families would still have to register with the IRS if they were also eligible for the $500-per-dependent checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just three days later, in an official release, IRS officials said that work had to be completed before noon on April 22 or the dependent payments would be delayed until 2021. The memo specifically said veterans needed to meet that deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A second, separate release on the IRS web site posted later said that veterans should work to meet that deadline but also noted that veterans would be granted \u201csome additional time beyond April 22 to add their children, since their $1,200 automatic payments will be made at a later date.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IRS officials on Wednesday confirmed that veterans can still update their dependent eligibility information as long as they have not yet received any stimulus payouts. However, they could not say when those payouts will occur, and what the new deadline will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They urged veterans to register with the agency as soon as possible, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/coronavirus\/non-filers-enter-payment-info-here\" target=_blank>through the IRS web site<\/a>.<\/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\/16\/usaa-will-stop-seizing-troops-coronavirus-stimulus-checks-after-public-outcry\/\" 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=\"156\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ARM-money.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\">USAA will stop seizing troops\u2019 coronavirus stimulus checks after public outcry<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The financial services firm had taken some payouts to cover existing debts, but promised on Thursday to stop that practice.<\/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\">VA officials referred all questions on the issue to the Treasury Department. Neither agency\u2019s officials have said how many veterans\u2019 stimulus checks may be affected by the records gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Takano called the different statements confusing and asked for the agencies to \u201cexplore additional options that will ensure veterans and their dependents receive the money they are owed\u201d from the stimulus package, part of a $2-trillion measure approved by Congress last month. He said the current system is not enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is vital that everyone receive the entire amount of their stimulus payment this year for both themselves
