Formula and method

A single filer with one qualifying dependent and 77,500 dollars of income has a simplified historical third-payment amount of 1,400 dollars.

Payment is 1,400 per qualifying person, with a proportional phaseout between 75,000–80,000 single, 150,000–160,000 married, or 112,500–120,000 head of household.

Worked example

Enter these known values and leave the other values blank.

How many dependents?: 1
Income in 2019 or 2020 (AGI): 77500

According to the bill, you could receive: 1400

Assumptions and limitations

This reconstructs the completed 2021 third-round economic impact payment. It is not a current benefit or application.
The captured 2018/2019 income controls are illustrative historical inputs. Actual third payments used available 2019/2020 return data and plus-up rules. Dependent, identity, residence and filing eligibility are assumed.
These formulas calculate results from entered inputs; a missing input can prevent a result.
