    It is too late for the first two stimulus payments.   If you file a 2021 return no later than April 15, 2025 you can still get the 3rd one as a recovery rebate credit on a 2021 return.

     

    Look at your online account with the IRS to see if they sent you $1400 in 2021.

    If you could be claimed as someone else's dependent in 2021, you are not eligible for the payment.

     

    If you were eligible and do not receive a payment soon from the IRS, the other way to get the payment is to amend your 2021 return to use the recovery rebate credit before April 15, 2025.   If you did not file a 2021 return at all, then prepare one and mail it in.
