Will stimulus money go on turbo card

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:

TurboTax Corona Virus Updates or IRS Corona Tax Relief.

We have not received anything official regarding why this is. Rather than possibly give incorrect information, we are waiting for a real answer from IRS.

Will stimulus money go on turbo card

This comoany is turning out to be full of **bleep** they are literally staring to deposit stimulus checks into accounts. But yet turbo tax is still clueless? Wven tho they work directly with the irs whwn ut comes to tax returns which are rhe same people issuing the stimulus payment so either something is being hidden fron us that they already have the responce to or this company is just to dumb to even try to figure anything out. You guys are playing with many families lives rn by not knowing anything someof us have no income and are depending on this money but we dont even know if its going ibto our accounts bc of **bleep** employees

The official answer is: "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."

 

This is because that is the truth.  What I can tell you is that you will get a letter or Email prior to receiving the check.

 

Based on oer best available information:    The first group – estimated to cover 50 million to 60 million Americans – would include people who have already given their bank account information to the Internal Revenue Service.

 

The first group also would include Social Security beneficiaries who filed federal tax returns that included direct deposit information, according to an alert put out today by U.S. Rep. Debbie Dingell, D-Mich. Dingell's announcement said the expectation is that the first direct deposits would hit in mid-April, likely the week beginning April 13.

 

I'm sorry, but that's all we have so far.

Yes, the stimulus payment will go on your card. The IRS is depositing some stimulus payments onto prepaid debit cards for filers that chose to receive their refund through that method.

Will stimulus money go on turbo card

The IRS is sending stimulus payments to eligible taxpayers who filed a tax return in either 2019 or 2018 and chose direct deposit, and is depositing some stimulus payments onto prepaid debit cards for filers that chose to receive their refund through that method.

 

For the majority of prepaid debit card holders there is nothing more to do as the stimulus payment will be deposited to their account. If your customer no longer has access to their debit card, we encourage them to visit https://turbodebitcard.intuit.com for assistance by logging in to their account, or using the Self Help available.

Will stimulus money go on turbo card

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.

I was told the stimulus would go on the turbo tax card by an Turbo expert. However, it did not! I had to follow instructions from the IRS web site to enter my deposit information.
