In an email, IRS spokesperson Anthony Burke confirmed that no fourth round of Economic Impact Payments has been authorized. The most recent round of stimulus checks was part of the American Rescue plan, a nearly $2 trillion stimulus package signed into law by President Biden in 2021, Burke added.

If you never received the third stimulus check or didn’t get the full amount, you may be able to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit. This is a refundable credit for anyone who missed out on one or more Economic Impact Payments, which were issued in 2020 and 2021. The IRS estimates that some individuals and families are still eligible to receive payments.

To receive funds through the Recovery Rebate Credit, taxpayers need to file a tax return first, according to AP News. The money won’t be automatically sent to bank accounts, as the social media post claims.
