After you file

Yes, you may qualify to receive a stimulus payment even if your 2019 tax return that was filed in 2020 was your first tax return. There is no IRS rule stating that first-time filers are not eligible to receive a stimulus payment. Please view this IRS link and use the Get Your Payment application, available mid-April, to check the status of your stimulus payment and update your direct deposit information if necessary.
