Is There a Real $800 Stimulus Check?

No federal $800 payment is approved for June 2025. The confusion mostly comes from state-level relief programs and expired federal credits that some people can still claim. There’s no new Congressional stimulus—at least, not yet.

That said, Colorado, California, and Pennsylvania are currently distributing payments close to $800 for specific groups. Plus, if you missed your third federal stimulus payment back in 2021, there’s still a way to claim that too—more on that below.

Colorado residents could receive:

• $800 for single filers
• $1,600 for joint filers

Eligibility:

• Must have filed a 2023 state tax return by April 15, 2025
• Must have lived in Colorado for the entire 2023 tax year

Can I Still Get Federal Relief?

Missed your $1,400 third stimulus check? The good news is you may still be eligible if you didn’t claim it in 2021.

Here’s what to do:

• File (or amend) your 2021 federal tax return
• Claim the Recovery Rebate Credit

After that, it’s gone for good.
