Tax Experts believe that there are as many as 10 million low-income, childless adults in the United States who are eligible for the federal government's stimulus payment program but are at risk of missing out on the money.
Treasury has created a web portal for those whose information is not on file to register payment details

The IRS needs our help to get the information to the low income and limed English proficiency taxpayers. You can help by forwarding this information to the groups that assist taxpayers that could fall through the cracks including
• Homeless shelters
• Battered women's shelters
• Food Banks,
• Community leaders, including priests, ministers, imam, rabbi, etc.
Who should use the Non-Filers tool?
This new tool is designed for people who did not file a tax return for 2018 or 2019 and who don't receive Social Security retirement, disability (SSDI), or survivor benefits or Railroad Retirement benefits.
Others who should consider the Non-Filers tool as an option, include:
Lower-income:
Among those who could use Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info tool are those who haven't filed a 2018 or 2019 return because they are under the normal income limits for filing a tax return. This may include single filers who made under $12,200 and married couples making less than $24,400 in 2019.
Veterans beneficiaries and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients:
The IRS continues to explore ways to see if Economic Impact Payments can be made automatically to SSI recipients and those who receive veterans disability compensation, pension or survivor benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs and who did not file a tax return for the 2018 or 2019 tax years. People in these groups can either use Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info option now or wait as the IRS continues to review automatic payment options to simplify delivery for these groups.
Social Security, SSDI and Railroad Retirement beneficiaries with qualifying dependents:
These groups will automatically receive $1,200 Economic Impact Payments. People in this group who have qualifying children under age 17 may use Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info to claim the $500 payment per child.
How does a Taxpayer use the Enter Payment Info tool?
For those who don't normally file a tax return, the process is simple and only takes a few minutes to complete.
First, visit IRS.gov, and look for "Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info Here."
Then provide basic information including Social Security number, name, address, and dependents.
The IRS will use this information to confirm eligibility and calculate and send an Economic Impact Payment. Using the tool to get your payment will not result in any taxes being owed.
Entering bank or financial account information will allow the IRS to deposit your payment directly in your account.
Otherwise, your payment will be mailed to you.
"Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info" is secure, and the information entered will be safe. The tool is based on Free File Fillable Forms, part of the Free File Alliance's offerings of free products on IRS.gov.
