Formula Used

Key thresholds (AGI for phaseout start): Single $75,000; Head of Household $112,500; Married Filing Jointly $150,000.

  • EIP 1 (2020 CARES): Base = $1,200 (Single/HOH) or $2,400 (MFJ) + $500 × qualifying children under 17. Reduction = max(0, 5% × (AGI − threshold)). Payment = max(0, Base − Reduction).
  • EIP 2 (2020): Base = $600 (Single/HOH) or $1,200 (MFJ) + $600 × qualifying children under 17. Reduction = max(0, 5% × (AGI − threshold)). Payment = max(0, Base − Reduction).
  • EIP 3 (2021 ARP): Base = $1,400 × eligible people (taxpayer(s) + all dependents). Linear phaseout to zero between the threshold and cap (Single $80k; HOH $120k; MFJ $160k): Payment = Base × max(0, 1 − (AGI − threshold)/(cap − threshold)).
