Can you please Answer my question? When can we get our stimulus check that the IRS sent you?

The irs sent out the 2nd round of stimulus to your banks instead of sending it to my bank account that is on file from doing my taxes with you last year with you Turbotax. We need our money,

You should get your stimulus this week. If not, instructions follow.

 

We are happy to share that stimulus payments, for those with fees taken from their refund, began to be deposited starting January 8th and will continue through January 15.  Your payment will be deposited into the same bank account that you received your 2019 tax refund.

 

If for some reason you do not receive your stimulus, you can have it added to your refund. The IRS does not begin accepting returns until January 25 so all stimulus should have been received by then.

 

Please wait until you are certain there is no second payment, then you can follow these steps, if necessary. 

  • After you have entered your tax information and are ready for the Federal Review, stimulus will be the first question.
  • If you are trying to trigger it: 
    1. go to Other Situations
    2. click Done. 
    3. The next question will ask about payments received.
  • The program will determine the missing amount and add it to your refund.
