We filed 2019 taxes through turbo tax. Paid Federal and got refund state. All direct deposit or paid through checking acc. Do we need to do anything to receive stimulus?

No, you do not need to do anything else. If you qualify for the stimulus payment, the money will be automatically deposited into the same bank account that your IRS federal refund was deposited into.

But the OP did not get a fed refund ... they had a balance due.   I have not heard if the IRS will specifically use the Debit info for the stimulus deposit.   Have you ?  And can you site the source ?

What we’re worried about is that we paid Federal tax’s, we did not get a refund? We did get a state refund?

Thanks

The feds will NOT get DD info from the state ... so if you did a direct debit from your checking account then it is still unknown if they will deposit the stimulus check to that same account.

 

BUT if you did not debit the account you will need to wait and see if  the IRS opens a DD site to register the bank account your stimulus will come back as a check  ...

 

The IRS does not have my direct deposit information. What can I do?

In the coming weeks, Treasury plans to develop a web-based portal for individuals to provide their banking information to the IRS online, so that individuals can receive payments immediately as opposed to checks in the mail.

Patience will be needed while hard working folks are trying their best to develop and implement  this distribution DURING a tax season AND a pandemic.
