Chicago Residents Qualify For Stimulus Payments
According to Straight Arrow News, Chicago’s undocumented immigrants are among those currently eligible for $500 Covid-19 pandemic relief cheques. Chicago is taking advantage of government funding from the Rescue Plan Act of America.
The money is for households that weren’t qualified for federal Covid-19 stimulus payments due to their immigrant status, according to city officials. Despite working at the time of the Covid-19 outbreak, officials contend that undocumented immigrants in their towns went unchecked. The estimated number of undocumented immigrants receiving Covid-19 assistance payments from Chicago is 17,000.
Farmers & Food Workers Helped By Stimulus Programme
The Farm & Food Workers Relief program is open to farmers, meatpackers, and grocery store employees.
Anybody who worked lawfully between January 2020 and the end of December 2022 was urged to apply for the stimulus program, provided they were employed in the agriculture sector. Over 2,000 farm employees in Arizona Yuma County qualified for the payout. Comite de Bienestar is a non-profit organization that assists Mexican-American immigrants & farmers with financial challenges. Arizona residents can contact them. The USDA website has contact information for the relief program for people living in other states, reports Sun.
