Thanks to the large number of stimulus checks that the United States government has sent to its citizens in recent years, society has achieved a better standard of living. And the fact is that this type of stimulus check payments makes it possible for Americans to have a better standard of living.
Still, it must be remembered that stimulus checks issued by the United States federal government itself are things of the past. There is currently no federal program that sends such payments to United States citizens. But it is true that there are states that do send a check to many citizens who meet certain requirements.
With this in mind, it is important to note that in Los Angeles County, a group of Americans will begin receiving a new stimulus check of $1,000 per month in a few days. And this check will stretch for 3 years in most cases. And this kind of payments help a lot to the economy in general, so they are always good news.
Who can receive the $1,000 stimulus check?
Not all Americans living in Los Angeles are going to be able to enjoy this stimulus check. To get the $1,000 per month you have to meet the eligibility criteria.
These are the criteria a U.S. citizen must meet in order to apply for and receive the $1,000 per month check for the next three years:
- Be at least 21 years old and not have turned 24 before reaching September 1 of the current year 2023.
- Must have been in a care system for 18 years or after your 18th birthday.
- Have a family income of 100% (or less) of the median income for the area. This would be in the case of living alone. If they live in a household with two or more people, the percentage reaches 120%.
- Have suffered any negative effects from the past pandemic.
- Have not applied for any other type of guaranteed income program.
If eligible, the money from this stimulus check will go into the pockets of those chosen through a debit card. Therefore, it is not mandatory to have a bank account to be eligible for this monthly payment. The debit card can be used as any other type of card without any special requirements.
The payment from the Breathe program will arrive each month beginning in July. The State of Los Angeles itself will contact each eligible citizen to advise that they have access to this stimulus check.
