IRS Releases State-By-State Breakdown of Nearly 9 Million Non-Filers Who Will Be Mailed Letters About Economic Impact Payments

The IRS released a state-by-state breakdown of the roughly nine million people receiving a special mailing this month encouraging them to see if they are eligible to claim an Economic Impact Payment. The IRS will mail the letters to people who typically are not required to file federal income tax returns but may qualify for an Economic Impact Payment. The letter urges recipients to visit the special Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info Here tool on IRS.gov before the Oct. 15 deadline to register for an Economic Impact Payment.

"The IRS continues to work hard to reach people eligible for these payments," said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig. "These mailings are the latest step by the IRS to reach as many people as possible for these important payments. We are releasing this state-by-state information so that state and local leaders and organizations can better understand the size of this population in their communities and assist them in claiming these important payments. Time is running out to claim a payment before the deadline."
