Now that Congress is back in session, having returned from a brief recess, there's hope that one or both chambers might take up legislation regarding a fourth stimulus check, or perhaps at least offer some sense of the likelihood or not of whether one will be coming at all soon.
On the side of the ledger making the case for why one could be possible: Democrats, remember, control both the House and Senate (albeit by the slimmest margin possible in the latter, thanks to Vice President Kamala Harris' tie-breaker vote to end any 50-50 logjam). Also, next year will bring the mid-term elections, which is to say that comity and a willingness in Congress to work on a bipartisan basis is going to temporarily evaporate. So if a fourth stimulus check is going to be approved at all, it needs to happen soon. And perhaps most importantly, this is something that Americans want, badly. A Change.org petition, for example, calling for additional stimulus checks has picked up more than 2.3 million signatures as of the time of this writing.
