If I amended my return, will I still get my stimulus check direct deposit to my turbo card?

[ReginaM]

We are still waiting for IRS guidance regarding updating or providing direct deposit information for the stimulus payments and how they will be distributed to these type of accounts. We will have more information once the government finalizes the details.

In the meantime, you can visit the following links for the most recent updates:

Why are there different answers on this? On a different post with the same question it was answered as no and we would get a paper check. What is the correct answer

As you are aware, these are complicated times.  This is the official statement.

Unfortunately we still don't have a definitive answer.  We are still waiting for direct guidance from the IRS regarding updating or providing direct deposit information for the stimulus payments and how they will be distributed to these types of accounts. We will have more information once the government finalizes the details.

So basically I’m not gone receive nothing?

[CatinaT1]

That's not what we said.  We just don't know if you will get a check in the mail or a direct deposit onto the TurboTax card.

[genarand]

But it’s not fair that we use the TurboTax cards because we filed with turbo tax but now in blue of how they gone send it. People has already received their money, but we left wondering what’s gone happen when some of us need it. I actually have two direct deposit one from 2018 and the one y’all gave me with the turbo card for 2019 and both are active. This taking way too long for y’all to find out information if y’all partner up with the irs for these situations!

In order to deliver money as quickly as possible to those who need it, the IRS is sending stimulus payments to eligible taxpayers who filed a tax return in either 2019 or 2018 and chose to receive their refund via direct deposit into their checking account.  These taxpayers will automatically have their stimulus payment deposited into the account they received their refund.  We have not yet received confirmation from the IRS on whether they will be putting stimulus payments on prepaid debit cards.  However, we have noticed that the IRS has started depositing stimulus payments on some prepaid debit cards for taxpayers that chose to receive their refund through that method in tax year 2019 or 2018.  If you received your refund on a prepaid debit card in tax year 2018 or 2019, here is what you need to know: 

• I have access to my debit card: If you have access to your debit card (most people), there is nothing more you need to do.  If the IRS deposits a stimulus payment onto your prepaid debit card, you will be able to immediately use the stimulus funds upon deposit. 
• I don't have access to my debit card: If you received a notification that you will be receiving your stimulus payment from the IRS on your prepaid debit card and no longer have access to it, we will have information coming shortly.  We encourage you to visit this site, where we are continually updating with the latest information and guidance. We know everyone is anxious to get their stimulus money and we are committed to helping our customers get access to their stimulus payment as fast as possible.

Now it’s an different answer, if the cards that TurboTax issued me is prepaid card why is the information to find out so hard I can not even get an true answer . The only thing I can think of now is that cards are fake or scamming people now.

So if I amended my tax return I’ll still get a stimulus check correct?
