Why can't it? It's a retroactive tax cut. A rebate on taxes already paid.
I don't know your mothers situation of course, but I'm pretty sure she can get the rebate if she files a return for this year....even if she is not required to do so normally. Keep in mind, this is a rebate..not a refund.
There's a big myth out there about previous tax cuts....tax cuts for the rich they like to call them. You and I both know that the poorest Americans don't PAY income taxes. So, when income taxes are cut it doesn't affect them. Well, this is different. You don't have to have paid any income tax to receive this rebate.
