Didn't Trump promise us checks this year?
Oh wait to answer my own question
He hasn't asked Congress to do it.
Tariff ruling could mean some say that he can't but if refund for tariffs maybe could?
Just send an average check same to everybody seems I've seen $1,700 if I remember right as no way to show how much tariffs cost each person

As of April 2026, there are no official, approved plans to mail federal stimulus checks to Americans this year.
While Donald Trump has proposed a "$2,000 tariff dividend" payment for lower and middle-income individuals funded by tariffs, this proposal faces major obstacles:
No Approval: Congress has not passed legislation authorizing these payments, and such approval is not guaranteed.
Legal Challenges: Following a Feb. 20, 2026, Supreme Court decision, the legal basis for the tariffs designed to fund these checks is in question, making the payments "less likely" or a "long shot," according to analysts.
No Active IRS Program: The IRS has not established a program to send these payments, and the agency is actively phasing out paper checks for federal payments.
( I did have my accountant call me and ask for banking information as government wouldn't mail a refund but will deposit to bank)
