More $1,200 stimulus checks are on the way. Here are key dates for the next set of payments.

Social Security recipients may start seeing payments by April 29. SSI and Veterans Affairs benefit recipients who don’t file a tax return and have dependent children need to act by May 5 to claim the $500-per-child stimulus payment.

If you’re still waiting on your stimulus money, here is an estimate of when more payments will be delivered.

— Social Security, survivor and disability non-filers will see economic impact payments in their bank accounts no later than May 5, according to a Treasury spokeswoman. Social Security and Railroad Retirement recipients can now access Get My Payment to check the status of the payment. You can’t use the tool to provide direct deposit information. The IRS will use the information on Form SSA-1099 or Form RRB-1099 to send a stimulus payment the same way you receive your benefit.

— SSI non-filers should begin seeing payments in early May.

— Veterans benefit recipients should also begin receiving their stimulus payments by early May, a Treasury spokeswoman said.

— In an update posted Sunday, the IRS said that if you have successfully entered your bank information “any day until noon on Tuesday, your payment date will be available beginning the following Saturday.” If you miss the Tuesday deadline, you have to wait another week to get a payment date. Or, if your payment has already been processed, you’ll get a check that could take up to 14 days to receive.

— If you receive SSI or Veterans Affairs benefits and didn’t file a tax return for 2018 or 2019, you have until May 5 to use the non-filer tool on the IRS website to receive the $500 payment per dependent child under 17. If you miss the deadline to register dependent children, you will still get your $1,200 payment, but you will have to wait until next year to get the additional $500 when you file a 2020 tax return.

saying that the info entered did not match their records--we had a refund coming, but rolled it over for next year. So I entered "got refund" but gave the amount as 0...and it finally accepted my direct deposit info!
