Tax Year Prior to 2020: How do I apply for my stimulus check?

If you filed a return in 2018 or 2019 a stimulus check will be issued automatically. If you did not need to file this year or last, you can file a zero return with Turbo Tax. Go to:

https://turbotax.intuit.com/stimulus-check/ link to stimulus registration (SR).  It is very important that you use the option that says register now if you don't need to file taxes this year.  Otherwise, you will not be able to E-file a zero return. It also has the calculator.

If you didn't use direct deposit last year for your refund, then the IRS will mail checks to your last known address. The IRS has promised to set up a portal where taxpayers can go and update their banking information. However, they are still working on the technology and is not yet ready as of now.

@Bensbrain

The IRS is currently working on a Get My Payment application, due any time now, that you can use to let them know your correct bank account information, if they don't have your direct deposit information and haven't sent your payment yet.  Please see the IRS's Economic Impact Payments page for more information.
