Americans Will Be Receiving $500 Relief Check In Less Than 2 Weeks– Check How To apply
The Department of Family and Support Services and Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot have allotted $ 14.68 million to start their program called the Chicago Resiliency Fund 2.0. Applications are going to be accepted through Saturday, December 31 rather than December 9 as was reported originally.
Officials are providing a total of 25,500 residents with a one-time payment. Who are the ones qualified? The program’s aim is at helping Chicagoans who could have been left out of Covid-19 stimulus checks. Applicants are required to submit an online form by the end of the month and candidates are going to be randomly selected in a lottery draw.
Chicagoans have to be over the age of 18 and have an income of 300% or below the Federal Poverty Level. The threshold for a household of one is $40,770.
According to a published post by The US Sun, residents are also required to meet one of the following:
• Filed taxes in 2019 and has been claimed as a dependent aged 17 or older
• They are not a documented resident or domestic worker.
Officials have warned that only one application can be submitted per household and duplicates will be rejected. If candidates are selected, they will have to pass qualification checks designed to prevent fraud or any other criminal activities.
The payment will either be uploaded onto a prepaid debit card or delivered via bank transfer. Officials have stated that they hope to deliver all payments by December 2023 at the latest. Other payments that can be claimed.
