Coronavirus Relief Worksheet for Individuals

In light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the US government has passed several measures to provide financial relief to the American public. Two laws—the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA)—have introduced a variety of changes including stimulus check payments and the expansion of paid sick leave, family leave, and unemployment to many impacted workers. Use this worksheet to find out if you qualify for any of these new benefits and how to apply for assistance.

If you have legal questions related to COVID-19, ask a lawyer or find more resources in our Coronavirus Legal Center.
