IRS $3,000 Direct Deposit Relief Coming This August 2025 – Are You Eligible?

In August 2025, once again the question is being raised among American taxpayers whether they will get new stimulus payments (Stimulus Checks)? Discussions of new checks ranging from $1,390 to $2,000 are in full swing on social media. But what is the reality? What statement has the IRS given on this? And who is actually going to get any amount this month? Let’s know in detail.

Is the IRS issuing any new direct deposits in August 2025?

Actually, it is made known by IRS that there is no new program called the IRS Direct Deposit Relief that is to be introduced in August 2025. But the amount of refund up to $3,000 is being paid to your banks accounts between August 20-24, 2025, of eligible taxpayers. In the event that people want to receive the check by paper, it will be mailed between August 25 and 30, 2025.

This is not a new stimulus check by only individuals who have filed their 2023 tax returns and qualified or received the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), Child Tax Credit (CTC) or other adjustable insurances.

Eligibility – Who is getting this payment?

This payment is available to individuals whose annual income falls under:

• less than\$75,000 (single filers)
• less than\$150,000 (married joint filers)

The IRS has also clarified that no new national-level stimulus program is in place and the news circulating on social media is completely false.

Is a new federal stimulus check coming?

No. There is no new approved federal stimulus payment either by Congress or the IRS.

• Three rounds of big stimulus packages were injected into the economy in 2020 and 2021 during the pandemic.
• The deadline to claim the third stimulus payment has expired on April 15, 2025. No new Recovery Rebate Credit or federal stimulus program has been implemented in 2025 yet.

Rumors and Reality as of August 2025

Rumors of new payments of $1,390 or $2,000 are currently circulating on social media. But this is completely false.

• These rumors often present information about limited relief programs issued by state governments as a national stimulus. * Some states are giving small payments to their citizens in the form of inflation relief or tax rebate, but this is not a federal program administered by the IRS.**

Official statement from the IRS

The IRS said in its statement:

“There is no new Recovery Rebate Credit available this tax season, and there are no plans for any new federal stimulus payments. Most of the news circulating on social media is the result of misinterpretation of old timelines or misrepresentation of state-level plans as federal programs.”

State-Level Relief

Even though there is no new federal stimulus, some states have implemented local relief packages. These are often one-time payments and eligibility is determined by the state. For example, some states are running tax rebate or inflation relief plans for low-income families and seniors.

Will we get a new stimulus check in 2025?

The conclusion as of August 2025 is:**

• There are no new federal stimulus checks.
• Only people who filed 2023 tax returns and were entitled to qualified tax credits are getting paid.
• All national stimulus programs have ended and have passed their expiration dates.
• It is confusing to mistake the small relief payments given by states for the federal stimulus.

Conclusion

When you are waiti8ng a new stimulus check in August 2025, remember that the IRS or the US government do not have any new programs in place. The ones being paid are only those who are owed money as a result of mistakes or corrections of their prior tax returns.
