I entered an American Express Serve prepaid card Wednesday on IRS website. Absolutely, it's not a "GLITCH" they just didn't want to reroute all the stimulus checks that had fees taken out or the advances. 1st Century Bank that handled the loans and tax fee deductions for Turbo Tax they wasn't going to make any money for the rerouting of stimulus checks like they did for the tax returns. It's BS that they say Glitch, they can fix a GLITCH but they can't fix their greed. I guarantee if they could've taken a fee out of our stimulus checks they would've redirected the stimulus checks to our Turbo Cards. Yes I'm done with TurboTax & Turbo Card. They just straight up lied about this & blaming a GLITCH & the IRS.

@PipeWelder99 - while i share the frustration , it's not what you think

when you have fees substrated the refund (or a loan advance) the third party provides a temporary account number to the IRS and then closes that account once the money is received.  Then the remainder is placed on your card on a SECOND account. 

The IRS only knows the 1st account and has no knowledge of the 2nd account,  and remember the 1st account was temporary and now closed.

So the IRS has no way to get you the money other than a paper check or by you updating your account information at the IRS website

Yes I agree 💯%, that's exactly what happened. But Turbo Tax knew this would happen. Turbo Tax blaming a glitch on the IRS's end is wrong, It's definitely not the IRS's fault.

read what the representative from TT said in this article....it's accurate "TT customer will get their stimulus" but they never state "how"

Yeah, I see what your saying. Turbo Tax is all saying it was the IRS's decision. I changed my info with IRS and entered a different card Wednesday. But who knows how long it'll take for the IRS to update and send it. I think Turbo Tax could've gave their customers a heads up.

You have posted to a 2 year old thread ... so what is your exact question ?   There are no more stimulus payments going out  and the only way to get any missed payments is to file a return.

The first EIP --or stimulus check--- was issued in 2020  It was for $1200 for adults and $500 for a dependent under the age of 17.   The IRS used information from either your 2019 or 2020 tax return to issue those checks so they could send them out in a hurry.

The 2nd EIP or stimulus was issued in late 2020 or early 2021 and was $600 for adults and $600 for dependents under age 17.

If you did not receive the 1st and/or 2nd stimulus check you can get it by filing a 2020 tax return and using the recovery rebate credit in Federal Review.   It will end up on line 30 of a 2020 tax return and will be added to your refund (or reduce your tax due).

The 3rd EIP--or stimulus check-- was sent out in mid-March or later in 2021 and was for $1400 per person--adults and dependents no age limit.

If you did not get the 3rd EIP payment you can get it by filing a 2021 tax return and using the recovery rebate credit in Federal Review.   The credit will go on line 30 of your Form 1040 and will add to your refund (or reduce your tax due).
