]]>Economic Impact Payments are coming soon and will be a great resource for helping you stay on top of financial obligations. We encourage you to heavily consider your financial obligations and prioritize so you can use this much needed support in the most responsible way possible.
The distribution of economic impact payments will begin in the next three weeks and will be distributed automatically, with no action required. Please do not call the IRS about this. When more specific details become available, the IRS will update this page.
► The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service today announced that Social Security beneficiaries who are not typically required to file tax returns will not need to file an abbreviated tax return to receive an Economic Impact Payment. Instead, payments will be automatically deposited into their bank accounts.
During this time, we are also offering you the ability to phone in your rent payment to our Spencer Corporate Office at (712) 262-5640. With documented evidence you've applied for unemployment, we will waive the late fee if your rent is on its way but running late.
Continue to check our Resources for Residents page for helpful information on services and organizations committed to supporting our communities.
