when will we receive the stimulus check

As of August 2025, there are no official or confirmed stimulus checks scheduled to be sent out by the IRS or the U.S. Congress. Recent rumors about a new $2,000 stimulus check or a $1,390 direct deposit relief payment circulating on social media have not been supported by any official sources. The IRS continues to process regular tax refunds but is not managing any new stimulus payments this month. There have been political proposals, such as the "Trump Rebate" and the "American Worker Rebate Act of 2025," which suggest stimulus-like payments, but none have been approved or enacted into law, so no payments are guaranteed or scheduled at this time. The IRS is currently wrapping up sending out up to $1,400 stimulus payments to about 1 million taxpayers who missed claiming the Recovery Rebate Credit for the 2021 tax year. However, this is part of the earlier pandemic-era relief efforts and not a new stimulus program. In summary, no new stimulus checks will be received in August 2025 unless Congress passes new legislation, which has not happened yet.
