“The IRS will provide $1,390 stimulus checks in 2026.”

This claim is false. The IRS has not announced or authorized any $1,390 stimulus check program for 2026, and Congress has not approved such payments. The "$1,390" figure circulating online is a viral rumor. Some individual taxpayers may receive refunds near that amount based on their personal tax situations, but that is not a stimulus program. The only official IRS documentation available discusses payment modernization — not stimulus checks. Multiple credible sources have debunked this claim.
