ITIN filers are ineligible to receive $1,200 COVID-19 stimulus checks, which are only available to SSN holders. Additionally, due to language in the CARES Act, most “mixed status” households containing both SSN and ITIN filers are excluded from receiving stimulus payments, including U.S. citizen spouses and children. Information from National Immigration Forum

 

For more information see the Economic Impact Payment Information Center and Recovery Rebate Credit.

 

Generally, if you were a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien in 2020, were not a dependent of another taxpayer and have a Social Security number that is valid for employment, you are eligible for the Recovery Rebate Credit.
