Social Security Beneficiaries: You Might Need to Act Now to Get Your Stimulus Check
The U.S. Treasury Department recently announced that Social Security beneficiaries who aren't typically required to file a tax return won't need to take any special action to get a $1,200 stimulus payment. Because of this, most Social Security beneficiaries don't have to take any special action -- the payment will be automatically paid in the same manner as their Social Security benefits.

Here's a quick rundown of the latest guidance from the Social Security Administration (SSA) so you can decide if you need to file some information with the IRS.
