Question

I filed married/joint, will the stimulus check go to my direct deposit for me and my wife together ($2,400) as one like our taxes or will it be separate? (1,200) each

Likely be one check but I have not seen anything authoritative on this.

So will it be $2400 being direct deposited (for me and my wife), or just $1200, trying to figure out if they will be adding my wife to it... or if it will be just myself

See this IRS website for stimulus payment information - https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/economic-impact-payment-information-center

 

U.S. residents will receive the Economic Impact Payment of $1,200 for individual or head of household filers, and $2,400 for married filing jointly if they are not a dependent of another taxpayer and have a work eligible Social Security number with adjusted gross income up to:

  • $75,000 for individuals
  • $112,500 for head of household filers and
  • $150,000 for married couples filing joint returns
