Hey so I still haven’t received my stimulus check yet (April 28). I keep checking the IRS “get my payment” tool & it keeps telling me the same thing, “status not available”. W

& also, I’m a new filer. I filed for my 2019 tax returns.

@juan14 - did your 2019 tax return complete processing? that is probably the hold up

 

IRS FAQ:

.Payment Status Not Available – We cannot determine your eligibility for a payment at this time. For example, this could mean:

  • You are required to file a tax return, but:
    • We haven't finished processing your 2019 return
    • The application doesn't yet have your data; we’re working on adding more data to allow more people to use it.
  • You don't usually file a return, and:
    • You used Non-Filers: Enter Payment Info Here but we haven’t processed your entry yet
    • You receive an SSA or RRB Form 1099 or SSI or VA benefits; information has not been loaded onto our systems yet for people who don’t normally file a tax return.
  • You’re not eligible for a payment (see Eligibility).

The most likely reason for the Payment Status not available message is that the IRS has not yet come around to processing your stimulus payment. The page will be updated when more information is available.
