    Agradeceria, a ser posible, me informasen como declarar estas ayudas directas del IRS (stimulus checks) en declaracion de renta aqui en España. En EE.UU. estan exentas de impuestos, y segun leo en un foro fiscal, en algunos paises tambien. Aqui en España segun el foro Rankia. estos cheques recibidos, deben tributar. Cara a la declaracion campaña 2020, como deberia reflejarse esta ayuda $1200 en la declaracion?. Muchisimas gracias

      Cris, definitivamente es un ingreso y lo más razonable es que los “Stimulus checks” deberían tributar en el IRPF como rentas del trabajo.

    I would like to apply for the Recovery Rebate Credit because I haven’t received any of the stimulus checks yet.

      Javier, you should claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on your 1040 2020 Indivdual Tax Return.

      Kathy,

      You can deposit them in a US Bank account, if you do not have any, please check with ACA (American Citizens Aborad). They are offering a service so you can open a bank account in the US directly from your home.

      Antonio
