You would receive $1,200 under the HEROES Act.

  • Your AGI of $60,000 is at or below the threshold, so you qualify for the full payment.
  • Adding up to 3 qualifying dependents (any age, including adult college students) would increase your payment by up to $3,600.
  • Unlike the CARES Act first stimulus, the HEROES Act allowed adult dependents - including college students and elderly parents - to qualify for payments.

Next stepNote: The HEROES Act was passed by the House in May 2020 but was never enacted into law. The actual second stimulus check ($600) was authorized by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021.
