Those feeling the financial burn of the coronavirus may start receiving their $1,200 relief checks starting on Thursday, according to an internal IRS memo.

The memo, obtained by the Washington Post last week, reported that payments are set to begin on April 9 for some U.S. citizens. Those receiving electronic payments will see the money hit their bank accounts sooner rather than later, but others waiting for a paper check in the mail may have to wait until as late as September to get their funds.
