After you file

You are correct that there are not many answers to specific situations.  

 

Here is what the IRS has said:

 

For people who have already filed their 2019 tax returns, the IRS will use this information to calculate the payment amount.

 

For those who have not yet filed their return for 2019, the IRS will use information from their 2018 tax filing to calculate the payment.

 

The economic impact payment will be deposited directly into the same banking account reflected on the return filed.

 

The IRS has also said that they plan to issue the stimulus checks to people who have filed 2019 returns first.
