If you have low income and live in Los Angeles, you have until July 3 to submit your application and then get a stimulus check.
The annual and direct payment amounts to $24,000.00 USD, a figure that is not insignificant, especially for current inflationary times.
The promised budget comes thanks to the “Breathe” Guaranteed Income Program. Those in charge of processing the applications have been receiving them since June 20.
Those who are chosen will receive direct payments of $1,000.00 USD per month for the next two years. In total, the economic aid translates into $24,000.00 USD at the end of the next 24 months.
Who is eligible for the stimulus check?
The aforementioned stimulus check is intended exclusively for foster youth. The first requirement is to be between 21 and 23 years of age. It is important that you know that the limit to turn 24 years old is September 1, 2023.
Another factor that is taken into account is that you have been a participant in the DCFS youth program of Los Angeles County itself after turning 18 years old. Meanwhile, you must have income less than 100% or 120% of integrated families, at least, by two people.
Meanwhile, it is required that you have suffered financial difficulties due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Attention! You must not be part of another guaranteed income program.
How much is the stimulus check?
Those in charge of the aforementioned program affirm that the budget that is delivered to the chosen families will provide ideal financial stability. It will allow its beneficiaries to have financial relief in the midst of the current inflation in the United States.
The “Breathe” program also provides the option of having time on your behalf. For example, to complete distance education, job training, and fully participate in communities.
Finally, you should know that this aid program does not require any of the requirements that other public benefits request from the participants.
