Social Security Recipients Will Get Stimulus Payments

     From WYMT:
We at WYMT received many calls and emails from viewers who wanted to know whether or not individuals that are living on social security will receive the benefit checks as a result of the stimulus package currently making its way through congress.

Thursday, we talked directly to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for answers.
His office told WYMT that all U.S. residents who are not claimed as a dependent of another taxpayer and have a work-eligible social security number (up to the income threshold limits) will receive a stimulus check.
"This does apply to those who have no income, as well as those who receive income from non-taxable means-tested benefit programs, such as Social Security," they told us in a statement. ...
     What I wonder about are the people who don't  get their stimulus checks because they've changed bank accounts. Who's responsible for taking care of those cases? I don't think it's Social Security, though.
