Stimulus Check Update: Most Americans Will Get an Average of $3,450 in Stimulus Money in 2021

The federal government has been very generous with providing coronavirus stimulus money in 2021. Despite the fact that the Biden administration doesn't seem responsive to calls for a fourth stimulus check, the reality is that the majority of Americans will receive thousands of dollars in federal aid deposited into their bank accounts this year. In fact, an analysis from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy recently revealed that the value of federal stimulus dollars averages $3,450 for the bottom 60% of earners in the U.S. That encompasses everyone making less than $65,000 per year.
