How to fill a 1040a form if all you get is SSA check and will like to get the stimulus?

Question

My mother receives SSA check only; How to fill the 1040A form so she can get a stimulus check?

Answer 1

AARP has a nice simple tool to help you print the form

Answer 2

If your mother is not a dependent:

1.  Write stimulus across the very top.

2.  Put in her name, address, single, check box for exemption.

3.  Find the SSA line (14?) and put the benefits on the A box only.  You get her benefits from the SSA-1099, box 5.

4.  She signs.

5.  Mail it in.  The zip code is slight different, use -0099 as the extension.

6.  Allow 8 weeks to process.
