Americans could receive $1,745 after Donald Trump’s promise – here’s when it could hit your bank

Trump has previously indicated that any payments might focus on individuals earning under $100,000 per year. In October 2025, he floated the idea of a dividend-style payout, later reaffirming in a November post on Truth Social that the plan was under consideration.

Even so, nothing has been finalized.

While Trump has suggested that any potential back-payments could begin around mid-2026, even that timeline is speculative. A final decision ultimately depends on further updates from the Supreme Court, meaning Americans are still waiting for clarity.
