The Internal Revenue Service, IRS, will mail checks worth up to $1,400 to taxpayers who did not claim their stimulus checks during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Around one million U.S. taxpayers who were eligible for the check can expect a lump sum mailed to them during tax season. On Friday, the agency announced that it would start sending automatic payments of up to $1,400 to those who qualified for the 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit but did not properly claim it on their tax return.
