Is there a way to get my stimulus back if someone stole my information and had it directed to their bank?

Someone had stole my information, and it seems as if they've received my stimulus as Turbo Tax has just mentioned. I'm trying my best to remain stable. Please help if anyway possible. Thank you.

Yes. You may need to start identity theft actions to recover the stimulus payments you are entitled to. If you have qualifying children/dependents on your tax return then you should receive the stimulus payments for those dependents.

Begin the process by using this link for the Federal Trade Commission. Next you can start the process by visiting IdentityTheft.gov.

Do you have any evidence besides not getting EIP1 or EIP2?

File your correct tax return with the IRS as usual, and see what happens.

If you submit any Identity Theft Affidavit to the IRS, you will be put on the IP PIN list. You may not want that..
