The House Ways & Means Committee has already approved legislation but it needs to be approved by Congress and the Senate to become a reality. Under the current stimulus plan (of course subject to change), a third round of stimulus checks would be authorized and sent out to Americans based on income. Here’s the breakdown…

- For each eligible person: $1,400
- For married couples: $2,800
- Plus, receive an additional $1,400 for each dependent (including adult dependents)

Be aware, these current payouts are based on income. The figures above are the most you can receive if your income is below a certain amount. Those who make above income guidelines will get less stimulus money.
