My stimulus check said it was direct deposited on April 15th

The IRS tracking says my stimulus was direct deposited on April 15th. It still hasn't been deposited to the account on my return. The IRS did take my federal return for 2019 and I didn't file with Turbotax in 2018. Is there just a delay or am I just going to have to wait and see in 3 weeks?

If the IRS said your stimulus check was direct deposited you are getting it. The bank may not have posted it to your account yet. The only reason you would not get it would be if the direct deposit information you provided on your tax return is not accurate or no longer correct.

Would the be affected by them taking my 2019 federal return? Everyone I have talked to who has my bank has received there.
Do I fall under this category?

"What if I filed my taxes this year and owed money?

 

If you had a balance due this year, the IRS will mail a paper stimulus check to the address on your 2019 return, unless you were sent a refund by direct deposit in 2018, in which case your stimulus payment will be sent to
that account."

Wait a few more days for it to be posted to your account.

even if it wasn't direct deposited in 2018?
