Will my stimulus go on my turbo tax debit card that was sent to me to get my tax return?

Ya I need to know that as well. I filed my taxes on 2/10 & was accepted on 2/10.  I have been on still being processed 2/15 . I called on March 3rd they said that they needed my insurance forms ( 1095A & 8962) so I faxed it to them on 3/6. . They said that everything was good. Finally called back 2 weeks later got a Tax Advocate and she told me that she had gotten everything that she needed.  So she had informed the  IRS  to  put the codes in the release my refund . But even with that she said that it could take up to 3 weeks .

Thank you for clarifying that there may be different direct deposit information listed on your tax return depending on whether you had TT take their fees out of the refund or not. This is the only place I have heard mention of that so thank you again for this critical bit of information!

FACTS KNOWN TO DATE: 

 

FACT:  A prepaid debit card has an underlying bank account that acts  like a savings account not a checking account  in that you can only spend what is in the account after  fees are applied  and it can be reloaded.  Using the bank routing number and your "account" number at this sponsoring bank allows anyone like your employer/you/or the IRS to make deposits electronically.

 

FACT:  If the routing/account number listed on the form 1040 that you filed in 2019 (or 2018 if 2019 is not yet filed) has the debit card information on it then that is where the stimulus check is scheduled to go when they are released automatically.  @baltimore1999  REVIEW your return. 

 

FACT:  If your DD info is out of date for any reason the IRS will send a check instead automatically. 

 

FACT: IF the IRS gets the PORTAL working in some way, taxpayers whose DD or mailing address is out of date will be able to update the info ... date this will be operational is still TBD.  

 

FACT: TurboTax has partnered with the IRS to allow taxpayers who DO NOT NEED TO FILE a return to report the base minimum info to get a stimulus check.  This system must ONLY be used for those who do not need to file ... those who are required to file a return CAN NOT use this option.  Other tax programs are also working on this option to file a "simple" return that only has the taxpayer(s) name(s), address, dependents if any and the DD info if they have it. 

 

FACT:  For those who do not have a bank account they can buy a VISA debit card at the store for $5 to use for the DD ... you just just register the card with the same name/address as the primary taxpayer on the return.

 

FACT:  If you choose to not use a prepaid debit card and choose to have the check mailed then if you need to update your address do so by mailing in the IRS form 8822 ASAP.  https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8822.pdf

 

FACT: If you are not required to file a return and you have SS benefits then you do NOT need to do anything to get the stimulus check now.  BUT if you have dependents (under the age of 17) to list on a return then you can use the "simple" return option mentioned in the last fact to get the extra $500 now  OR  file a 2020 return later to capture this extra amount.

This has yet to be determined.  This website should be helpful when information is determined.  Keep checking for updates.

It will be a shame if the people who chose Turbo tax, chose the Turbo card, and paid EXTRA money to have a refund transfer to pay TT fees, get held up delaying the financial relief that they need. It shouldnt be that difficult as Turbo Tax has already partnered with the IRS and formed the Turbo Tax Coronavirus tax center to help people register for the stimulus check etc. What's the problem. It shouldnt be an issue for TT or SBTPG to help out THIER customers in a time of need. Smh

This is all new information, you do have your direct deposit account number on your tax return. Also, there will be other ways for you to report your direct deposit information if needed. We will keep you updated here.

"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:IRS Coronavirus Tax ReliefTurboTax Corona Virus Tax Center Updates"

I agree that TurboTax needs to answer the question where my money is going to go. After all my taxes did go through them first so they can collect their fees before I seen any money. So as far as I know that's where the IRS knows to send my money. So I should be able to get a quicker answer than I am Intuit TurboTax.
