Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The IRS will issue a stimulus check to a taxpayer if: 

  • Have a Social Security number.
  • Have filed taxes in 2018 or 2019, or don't earn enough to file but receive Social Security payments.
  • Earned less than $99,000 for single filers, $136,500 for heads of household, or $198,000 for married filers according to the most recent tax return filed.
  • Are not claimed by someone else as a dependent.

You may want to try researching your IRS account with the IRS Get My Payment application.  This new IRS application will allow you to:

  • Check your payment status,
  • Confirm your payment type such as direct deposit or check,
  • Enter your bank account information for direct deposit if the IRS does not have your direct deposit information and has not sent your payment yet.
