flag US government to stop issuing paper checks by end of September, shifting to electronic payments.

flag By September 30, 2025, the US government will stop issuing paper checks for benefits and refunds, transitioning fully to electronic payments to cut costs and reduce fraud. flag While most Americans already receive payments digitally, about 400,000 Social Security recipients and 5 million taxpayers currently receive paper checks. flag The government is encouraging enrollment in direct deposit and providing resources for those without bank accounts. flag The move aims to save money and improve security, as electronic transfers are cheaper and less likely to be lost or stolen.
