Stimulus checks are still available for some Americans. The thing is they are no longer for everyone. What is more, they come in various forms. For example, Harris County has brought a new Guaranteed Income Program.
These stimulus checks will allow recipients to benefit from $500 payments for 18 months. The best thing about them is the fact that there are no strings attached. That is you can use it to pay any necessary expenses.
Take for example your food, mortgage, bills, or loans. Unfortunately, it is just for 1,928 lucky participants who live in Harris County and meet all the requirements. It aims to help participants improve their health and financial situation.
