I've been using my refund money to pay rent since before the pandemic so I've been okay for now with my paycheck slowing down due to less hours. Although I may be affected a bit more recently since my GM found out when I said I was going out of town for a few days that I was going to my hometown which is an hour and a half away from Chicago (a major hotspot) and told me I can't come back to work within 2 weeks of the day that I'm back in town. Oh well..
At least the upside of not having to go to work is less risk of catching the virus since drivers go everywhere dragging along God knows what w them which means less risk of giving my 3 month old daughter the virus.
As far as I know, the IRS uses your 2019 tax return to determine your eligibility for the check, if you don't have it filed, that's when they check your 2018 tax return. You just need one of those, not both. So unless you don't meet a requirement outside of the tax return requirement, you should be getting a stimulus check
