Thanks for taking my question..

I receive SS, but I am a bit confused on this stimulus check?
Will I receive an increase in my SS for 6 months or will I receive a one time stimulus check or both?
Thanks
Dennis

Hi Dennis,

The economic relief package passed by Congress did not contain any changes to Social Security benefits, so your Social Security benefit rate won't change as a result of that legislation.

I can only answer questions about Social Security benefits, so if you have questions about stimulus payments you'll need to refer to IRS's website: https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus-tax-relief-and-economic-impact-payments.

Best, Jerry
