Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@monamadnessxo

 

The direct deposit for the stimulus refers to "Deposit IRS TREAS 310-TAX REF *************** IRS TREAS 310-TAX REF[your last name, first name]".

 

So, yes, it does look like a refund because of the REF but because of your numbers, this is almost certainly your stimulus.

 

I suspect the IRS programmers borrowed the code from the refund process code, and didn't change this text field.
