Just curious.
Stimulus checks: Why you won't get another payment for weeks -- if at all - CNNPolitics
(CNN)Congress is negotiating a fresh stimulus package that would include a third round of stimulus checks, but while there's broad agreement on the need for more direct payments, it will take weeks before any go out.
Comparing the Biden and GOP stimulus plans
The upcoming second impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump will push back any congressional action, and lawmakers are scheduled to be on recess over President's Day -- meaning there may not be progress on a deal until later in the month.
It takes at least several days to get the first payments processed after any legislation is signed, and has taken months to deliver payments to everyone who's eligible. Treasury is still trying to reach some people who should have gotten paid in the first round last year.
What to know about the timeline
President Joe Biden is urging lawmakers to include money for additional direct payments in a sweeping Covid relief bill. While the Senate passed a key procedural step early Friday that will allow Democrats to pass the legislation without the threat of a filibuster from Republicans -- lawmakers will only now start drafting the bill text.
A final vote could possibly come in late February, after the impeachment trial is complete in the Senate. Lawmakers hope to pass the legislation by March 14.
