Since your letter from the IRS indicated that half of the economic impact payment will be processed, I would expect that to not be affected by current closures. However, I don't have any idea about how long it may take to receive it. The only source for that information is the IRS portal, which as you have learned does not have complete information for all taxpayers.
Custodial parents awaiting disbursement of funds that were withheld can get information from the state that processes their parents.
Injured spouse information will have to come from the IRS, which, is frustratingly closed at the moment of course.
As for the credit on the transcript - these often will kick out checks automatically but since yours has not done so already, it sounds as if it requires some sort of manual processing which, again, requires that the IRS re-open.
New injured spouse claims of any time, when the IRS is open and fully operational, typically take 10-12 weeks to process so I expect that this is all, likely, going to take a bit of time to untangle itself once the IRS resumes operations.
Occasionally the Tax Advocate Service (TAS) that serves your area can assist in expediting when the situation warrants, but right now they are limited in what they can do to assist as well since they have to work with departments within the IRS.
If you would like to contact your TAS representative you can look up the contact information for the office that serves your area here: Taxpayer Advocate Service
