The Internal Revenue Service said Friday that one million taxpayers are set to receive about $2.4 billion in stimulus checks in the coming weeks.

The IRS is sending about 1 million eligible American taxpayers a payment this month for the pandemic-era Recovery Rebate Credit that they didn't claim on their 2021 tax returns.

The IRS has up to $2.4 billion in unclaimed stimulus payments it will soon send to up to 1 million taxpayers who are eligible.

The Internal Revenue Service, IRS, will mail checks worth up to $1,400 to taxpayers who did not claim their stimulus checks during the COVID-19 pandemic. Around one million U.S. taxpayers who were eligible for the check can expect a lump sum mailed to them during tax season.

The payments for people who filed 2021 tax returns depend on several factors, but the maximum is $1,400 per person.

Taxpayers can expect to receive a maximum of $1,400, according to the IRS. A total of $2.4 billion will be sent to those who missed receiving the credit. People do not have to do anything to receive their payments, as they will automatically be sent out to taxpayers in December and will arrive in most cases by late January.
