According a recent newspaper article in the Bloomington Pantagraph, there is still a lot of unclaimed money from the economic stimulus payouts.
Over 1500 people in McLean County who are eligible have not claimed their checks. Tazwell County has over 2000 people who did not apply.
The total amount of unclaimed money for McLean County is close to $500,000. The payments include $300 per person and $300 per dependent child.
People who receive social security disability payments, social security retirement or private disability payments are eligible.
If you think you may qualify it is worth contacting the United Way of McLean County. They will provide assistance in applying for the stimulus payments.
