The information directly from turbo tax does not match the records of the IRS. How am I supposed to get my stimulus check now?

If you are unable to match the identification in the system to update your deposit information, the IRS will mail you a check. 

 

A few tips for matching:

  • Make sure that you are using the tax year that it is asking for you. 
  • If you recently amended your tax return, use the numbers from the original return as it is likely that your amended return isn't on file yet at the IRS.
  • If you are able, access a copy of your IRS transcript here: IRS Transcripts and use the information from this form - it is directly from the IRS computers and should match.
  • Try again after a few days- it is possible that the IRS database needs to update, which is done only once per day.
