Tax Year Prior to 2020: Can TurboTax file for my stimulus check and have it added onto my TurboTax debit card

TurboTax can not file for you.

 

If you have filed a tax return for 2018 or 2019, you will automatically receive a stimulus check (or direct deposit if you have provided your bank information to the IRS on a tax return) if your AGI is $75,000 or less ($150,000 if married filing jointly).

 

Please read this IRS Q&A page for more information.

 

If you receive Social security benefits and are not required to file a tax return, you do not need to do anything. The IRS will direct deposit your stimulus payment into the account receiving your benefits.

 

If you are not required to file a return because you have no income or your income is below the filing thresholds, you can register for the stimulus payment on this IRS web portal.

Here are steps for you to learn more information about the Second Stimulus Check:

  1. Check the IRS Get My Payment tool. The tool should tell you where your stimulus payment was deposited or mailed. The IRS has indicated there’s nothing you can do to change where they send
    your payment.
  2. If your payment was delivered to a prepaid Turbo® Visa® Debit Card and you no longer have it, TurboTax will help you get a replacement card at no cost.
  3. If you paid for TurboTax with your refund last year, TurboTax has given the IRS your correct account information and they are working to send your payment within days.
  4. If you were entitled to a stimulus payment but did not receive one, and you didn’t pay for TurboTax with your refund last year, you may need to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2020 taxes to
    get your money.

Note that the IRS determines eligibility and issues all stimulus payments.
