Will I get the second stimulus check if I owe child support?
If you owe child support, the IRS can use first-round stimulus check money to pay arrears. That won’t be the case for second-round payments under the HEROES Act. In addition, second-round stimulus money wouldn’t be taken to pay back taxes or other debts owed to the federal or a state government.
Do you still get a stimulus check if you owe child support?
