Israeli Americans are eligible for stimulus checks tax attorney tells Post. Each person seeking the relief must have a US social security number, Silver noted, and the deadline for the US to provide the money is December 31, 2020.
Notably, the new bill includes stimulus checks of up to $1200 to every American and an additional $500 for a child. According to Monte Silver, a US tax attorney living in Israel, American citizens and Green Card holders living abroad, including Israel, are eligible to receive monetary relief as well if they have social security number and they filed taxes for 2018 or 2019.
The fact that Americans overseas receive relief is significant,” said an Israeli tax attorney. “Over the last two years, we have fought hard for smaller victories regarding the Transition and GILTI taxes. Prior versions of the Corona law left Americans overseas without relief. But as a result of last-minute advocacy, Congress changed the wording and expanded the relief to us too.”

The original bill forbade money from flowing to outside of the country, or going to green card holders. But there are tens of thousands of dual Israeli-American citizens, and we must support them. Also of note: the final bill includes $60 million for Jewish special interest groups like the ADL, and others. This bill is a cash grab for everyone, and your grandchildren will be the ones who are forced to pay on this deficit.
