The coronavirus relief bill signed into law on Friday includes payments to help most people, except for people who owe child support.
Owing back taxes or other debts such as student loans to the government does not affect how much stimulus money a person would receive, according to Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA).
The legislation “turns off nearly all administrative offsets that ordinarily may reduce tax refunds for individuals who have past tax debts, or who are behind on other payments to federal or state governments, including student loan payments,” Grassley, who authored the bill, wrote in a Medium post.
“The only administrative offset that will be enforced applies to those who have past due child support payments that the states have reported to the Treasury Department,” he continued.
In other words, people who owe child support could see their cash payments reduced or taken away altogether thanks to a 1996 law where the Treasury Department is allowed to collect overdue child support by cutting or withholding any federal handouts.

Excellent.
A very good move.
Do the $1200 checks also go to those in federal or state prison?
They already live rent free
There are going to be a LOT of women who breathe a little sigh of relief when those back payments come in.
Doubt they have been filing taxes..it's based on 2018 or 2019 tax filing.
Great idea!!!! He breeds 'em........he feeds 'em!!!

I see the feminist have spoken.
My child's father is behind on his child support - will I receive the stimulus check
Maybe next time think twice about your baby daddy
Democrats in Congress should not get any checks either !!!!
That’s wrong. No one can control or predict someone else’s behavior. When you are perfect, continue throwing stones. This is a valid question so hopefully someone can give an educated response.
SMH
