By Hikaru Y On Oct 7, 2021

It’s been months, talks of the fourth stimulus check have always been in the air.

But nothing conclusive has been announced yet.

There are millions of Americans who completely rely on this fourth stimulus check. On one hand, the COVID-19 pandemic has taken the livelihood of many American families in the past year and a half & on the other hand, the US is reporting:

And now with no 4th round of stimulus checks, there is no end to their misery. However, with this sad state of affairs, there’s some good news for people living in these 5 US States: California, Florida, New Mexico, Texas, Tennessee.

As reported by Pennlive.com, Americans living in these states are eligible to receive a certain amount of stimulus checks. Now, let’s take a look at the upcoming state-level stimulus checks:

5 US States to Receive Bonus Stimulus Payments

California

In August, California sent out a second round of state stimulus payments. Now, on Tuesday, Oct. 5, another third-round payment was made ranging between $500 to $1,100 dollars.

The second round of stimulus payments in California is larger than the first, according to experts. Residents who have children or were not qualified for the initial state stimulus payment are receiving greater payments this time around. California, unlike last year, is utilizing its own resources rather than federal money.

Texas

Let’s begin with the fact that Texas does not have a COVID-19 economic relief program, as the state of Texas does not have one. Local school districts are giving employees retention bonuses, which are known as stimulus payments.

In Irving, teachers will receive up to $2,000 in stimulus money, while Denton educators will receive up to $500 with a 2% raise. Following in their footsteps, other school districts are planning to do the same.

Tennessee

Teachers who work full-time in Tennessee will receive $1,000 stimulus payments and part-time educators will be paid $500 for making it through what is known as “the worst of the pandemic.” These incentives will be distributed by the end of the year.

New Mexico

In August, New Mexico handed out 4,000 low-income families with state-level stimulus payouts worth up to $750 to assist them to weather the economic downturn.

The program disbursed a total of $5 million in payments. Now, this program is looking to send payout to the families that didn’t receive any part of this stimulus payout.

Florida

In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers in Florida are receiving $1,000 stimulus payments for their commitment to teaching.

Police officers, firefighters, emergency medical technicians (EMTs), and paramedics are also eligible for $1,000 stimulus funds in Florida.

That’s all for now.
