I filed last Friday(April 10), and so far its been received just not approved yet. I assume I have to wait on that before the stimulus payment is sent as well correct? 

Bank info is up to date.

    The IRS has just launched a new web portal which allows you to follow the scheduled payment date for either a direct deposit or mailed check. It’s an online app that works on desktops, phones, or tablets and doesn’t need to be downloaded from an app store, the Treasury said.

     

    To track your payment, you must provide basic information including:

    • Social Security number
    • Date of birth
    • Mailing address

     

    The tool also lets people provide their bank account details to get their payment by direct deposit instead of waiting for a mailed paper check.

     

    If you filed a tax return in 2018 or 2019 but didn’t provide direct deposit information, you’ll be able to identify yourself, input that banking information, and receive the payment in several days in your account.

     

    To add direct deposit information, you will need to provide:

    • Adjusted gross income from your most recent tax return submitted, either 2019 or 2018
    • The refund or amount owed from your latest filed tax return
    • Bank account type, account, and routing numbers

    Thanks, for the copy/paste reply, im aware of how to check status. Guess its just a wait and see type thing. The approval seems to be taking longer than ive known ..unless I'm just impatient lol
