So make sure you are within the parameters.To begin with, if you do not have a Social Security number, you are not eligible for the stimulus payment. Likewise, non-resident aliens do not qualify, that is, people without a green card or proof of substantial presence.These criteria are the income limit and marital status for tax filing, as well as other factors listed below. It is worth noting that if your income exceeds these limits, the amount of your payment may be reduced or eliminated altogether.Single filers must have an adjusted gross income of $75,000 or less.Married couples filing jointly must have a combined adjusted gross income of $150,000 or less.For heads of households, the adjusted gross income must be $112,500 or less.
