AMERICANS could be sent their $1,400 stimulus check in a month if a new relief package is agreed.
Now that Joe Biden has been sworn into office, his new $1.9trillion Covid relief deal could come into play soon.
Earlier this month, Biden revealed that he is intending to send a third $1,400 stimulus check to Americans.
Since the plan was unveiled, Americans have been asking when they would get their money.
According to a CBS News analyst, it has been predicted that in a best case scenario the third check could roll in by late February.
This would be dependent on the bill being approved and signed by mid-February.
Speaking from Wilmington, Delaware, earlier this month Biden said there is "real pain overwhelming the real economy, one where people rely on paychecks, not their investments, to pay for their bills and their meals and their children's needs."
"It's not hard to see that we're in the middle of a once-in-several-generations economic crisis with a once-in-several-generations public health crisis," the president-elect said.
"We have to act, and we have to act now."
Fellow Democrat Chuck Schumer wrote in a letter to colleagues to prioritize passing additional stimulus checks.
Schumer wrote, according to Fox Business: "The job of Covid emergency relief is far from complete.
"Democrats wanted to do much more in the last bill and promised to do more, if given the opportunity, to increase direct payments to a total of $2,000 — we will get that done."
