IRS stimulus check: No $2,000 IRS stimulus check has been approved for Black Friday 2025. The IRS says no new federal direct-payment program exists. Congress has not passed any legislation authorizing $2,000 payments. Claims circulating online remain unverified. Trump has proposed a tariff-funded payment plan that could deliver around $2,000 to many Americans, but it is not law. Lawmakers are reviewing feasibility, funding gaps, and timing. Officials say any payment would require congressional approval.
