The U.S. government is now one step closer to directing the IRS to send a third stimulus check, direct deposit, or prepaid debit card to millions of eligible Americans.
After multiple rounds of negotiations, the Senate passed its own version of the American Rescue Plan over the weekend. It now goes back to the House for approval, and if the beefy coronavirus economic relief package earns it there, President Joe Biden will soon be able to sign the legislation into law so that cash can end up in your pocket if you qualify.
