TurboTax is not a bank, it cannot send or receive a stimulus payment.  Only the IRS controls when and if a stimulus payment is distributed.

Go to this IRS get my payment website - https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment

 

If you do not receive any other stimulus payments by January 15, 2021, then the stimulus payment for which you are eligible to receive will be entered on your 2020 federal tax return as a tax credit on Form 1040 Line 30.

The TurboTax program will ask about stimulus payments in the Federal Review section of the program.

Fully aware a tax filing company is not a bank. I did however, receive notice my stimulus payment was deposited in to a turbo tax account on January 4th. As I have paid for my tax filing via my return and then my remaining return is allocated by turbo tax. So, yes, me asking turbo tax where my stimulus is, is a viable question. Thank you, however, for your reply.

If you had your TurboTax fees deducted from your refund when you filed your tax return, then the IRS may have sent your stimulus check to the bank that processed your refund, which is different from your bank. If this happened, then TurboTax will have notified the IRS of your correct account information and the IRS will attempt to deposit the stimulus payment to your account.

 

Stimulus payments began to be deposited Friday (January 8th) for millions of our customers affected by the IRS error.

If you do not receive it by the time you prepare your tax return this year, you can apply for the payment on your tax return and it will be included with your refund.
