新一轮纾困补助计划给每个美国人发放1200美元

两党都支持发放新一轮纾困补助。

上周一,参议院多数党领袖米奇·麦康奈尔介绍了共和党另一项补助计划,打算向大部分美国人再发放1200美元。

尽管1200美元这个金额很很容易让人联想到上一轮发补助,但仍有一些重要的调整,尤其是在亲属补助问题上。

其实在计划中,补助本身是争议最小的部分。两党都支持发放新一轮纾困补助。争议的焦点在于延长每周600美元的失业救济金,州政府和地方政府资助方案,以及是否豁免企业涉及新冠疫情的诉讼。

参议院的共和党希望未来几周内能完成签署,并表示最早可能8月正式实施。

共和党的提案具体有哪些内容?以下是目前已知和未知的部分。

第二轮纾困补助对收入有没有限制?

共和党提出的第二轮纾困补助与第一轮几乎相同,将为个人提供最高1200美元的补助资金,已婚夫妇则是2400美元,每个符合条件的孩子500美元。如果调整后总收入超过每人7.5万美元或夫妇超过15万美元,补助数额将减少。此外,如果个人收入超过9.9万美元,有一个子女的家庭收入超过14.65万美元,或无子女家庭收入超过19.8万美元,则不提供补助。

共和党的计划还明确规定,监狱服刑者不会获得纾困补助。

第二轮补助是否涉及亲属?

第一轮纾困补助计划中,父母纳税时申报照顾的年轻人不会收到支票。不过,周一麦康奈尔表示,计划为成年家属提供“更多支持”。共和党提议为每个抚养亲属提供500美元,不分年龄(第一轮纾困补助时,上限为17岁)。

民主党也支持为亲属提供补助。如果5月众议院民主党通过的《英雄法案》能顺利实施,政府原本打算为亲属提供1200美元补助。

如果与外国公民结婚,还能获得纾困补助吗?

第一轮纾困计划中,与非美国公民结婚且共同纳税的美国人并未考虑在内。但两党一些议员正努力推动改变。

“不应该因为美国人与非美国公民结婚,就不提供联邦纾困补助,”参议员托姆·蒂利斯和马可·鲁比奥在周六一份声明中写道。

目前麦康奈尔在相关问题上的立场尚不清楚。

需要社会保险号码吗?

《英雄法案》5月获众议院民主党通过,但在参议院并未通过。根据该法案,纳税人可使用有效的报税号码获得补助,不必提供社保号,因为社保号码排除了很多非公民和持永久居留卡的人。共和党人并未建议改变做法。

何时能获得第二轮纾困补助?

美国总统特朗普签署最终的纾困补助法案后,可能要等几周。共和党领导人希望未来几周能达成协议,8月就发放支票。然而,考虑到共和党的内讧以及参众两院之间的争端,这么想可能过于乐观。

如果2019年尚未报税呢?

发放第一轮补助时,如果有美国人2019年没报税,美国国税局就参考2018年纳税申报表。考虑到许多纳税人选择10月延期报税,本轮可能还会参考往年纳税记录。

非纳税人和退休人员会不会再次延迟领取补助?

针对无需提交纳税申报表的美国人,包括众多靠社保生活的退休人员,第一轮补助发放时均有延迟。国税局主要为了核实相关人员是否有符合申领补助条件的子女,因此推迟了发放支票。

由于上一轮补助发放期间相关信息已获确认,本轮可能不会延迟。不过,还是要等法案通过,指导意见发布后方能确定。(财富中文网)

On Monday Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell outlined Republicans plans for another stimulus bill, which would send most Americans another $1,200 stimulus check.

Though that $1,200 number may ring a bell from the last time around, there are some important tweaks, including when it comes to dependents.

The stimulus checks themselves are actually one of the least controversial parts of an overall package. Both parties support another round of stimulus checks. The more contentious issues include extending the $600 unemployment checks, state and local government funding, and providing immunity to businesses from COVID-19 related lawsuits.

Senate Republicans hope to get the bill signed in the coming weeks, and have said the stimulus checks could come as early as August.

What's in the Republicans proposal? Here's what we do and don't know so far.

Will there be an income limit for the second stimulus check?

The Republicans proposal for second stimulus check is nearly identical to the first stimulus. It would send a stimulus check worth as much as $1,200 for individuals or $2,400 for married couples, plus $500 for each qualifying child. That amount would decrease for adjusted gross income above $75,000 per individual or $150,000 per qualified couple. And the checks phase out for individuals earning above $99,000, head of household filers with one child above $146,500, and joint filers with no children at $198,000.

The GOP plan also explicitly bars any individual in prison from receiving a stimulus check.

Will dependents get a second stimulus check?

Young adults who are claimed as dependents on their parents taxes did not receive a stimulus check the first time around. However, McConnell said Monday his plan would provide "more support" for adult dependents. His party is proposing to provide $500 per dependent regardless of age (it was capped age 17 in the first round of stimulus checks).

Democrats also support sending stimulus money for dependents. The HEROES Act passed in May by House Democrats would have provided $1,200 stimulus checks for dependents.

Will you get a stimulus check if you're married to a foreign national?

The first stimulus check didn't go to Americans who file taxes jointly and are married to a foreign national who isn't a citizen. But some representatives in both parties are pushing to change that.

"No American should be denied a federal stimulus check because they are married to a foreign national who is not a U.S. citizen,” wrote Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Marco Rubio (R-FL) in a statement Saturday.

It's unclear where McConnell stands on the issue.

Do you need a Social Security number (SSN)?

The HEROES Act passed in May by House Democrats, which died in the Senate, would've sent payments to tax filers with a valid tax ID number, instead of based on Social Security number—seeing as the latter excludes many noncitizens and people in the country on Permanent Resident Cards. This is not something Republicans are proposing to change.

When would I get my second stimulus check?

It will likely take a few weeks after President Donald Trump' signs the final bill for the checks to go out. Republican leaders hope to reach a deal in the coming weeks, and get checks out in August. However, given the Republican infighting and disputes between the House and Senate, that may be overly optimistic.

What if you still haven't filed taxes for 2019?

For the first round of checks the IRS used 2018 tax returns for Americans who hadn't filed their 2019. It's likely this will still be the case, given that many taxpayers have opted for October extensions.

Will non taxpayers and retirees get their checks late again?

Americans who are not required to file a tax return, including many retirees living on Social Security Income, received their payments later during the first round of stimulus payments. The IRS delayed their checks as it waited for them to verify if they had any qualifying children.

Given that information was already confirmed in the last round, it is possible that delay wouldn't occur again. However, such guidance will not be released until—or unless—a bill passes.
