Here’s when you can expect your $600 stimulus check to arrive

[Andy Meek]

• Millions of Americans will get a new stimulus check for $600 now that President Trump has signed the $900 billion COVID relief bill.
• In terms of when the new checks will go out, the first wave should begin in a matter of days, with the vast majority of disbursements comprised of direct deposits into recipients' bank accounts.
• The COVID relief bill includes a deadline of January 15, at which time no more of the new $600 stimulus checks will be sent out.

Pretty much the entirety of the Washington DC establishment, as well as the media and millions of people struggling economically as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, breathed a collective sigh of relief on Sunday night upon word that President Trump had given in and signed the $900 billion COVID relief bill -- notwithstanding his complaints that the direct payments to Americans needed to be bigger than $600 per person. He apparently was assured that Congress would get right on that and pass some sort of standalone legislation to make good on the president's demand for $2,000 checks, although it seems highly unlikely Congress will actually do that now.

Regardless, here we are, and now there's a new question on everyone's mind -- when will the $600 stimulus checks be sent out? Fortunately, a timeline has emerged, and the answer to that question is "very soon."
