After you file

Guys... I couldn't agree more with everybody that has made these posts and comments on here. The IRS has answers on their website but it is odd that TurboTax only keep sending out automated messages that say the same thing over and over to their millions and millions of customers that have been so very long for so long and I paid so much money for their services pain at the very least they could have some of their employees send out some kind of thoughtful responses rather than just an automated message. I was looking back on Google and reading up to see how all this worked back in 2008 when they were the last stimulus checks came out. According to the IRS fax page from back then which you can pull up BTW, it said that people that received a refund anticipation loan through a tax preparer or had fees deducted from there text for the tax repair services, would receive a check, meaning they would not get direct deposit. So it did not matter if a person got a loan or not. Either way even if you paid for their services and the services were deducted from your refund, or if you end up getting a loan, either way it was the same. Either way you had to wait for a check. I remember back in 2008 I ended up getting a check and it was because I use liberty tax and I did get a refund anticipation loan. For the last two years I have used TurboTax and I have not received any kind of loan but I wanted to see what would happen since my taxes were not free to file. I had to pay. So since I had to pee and I did not pay upfront, I had the amount deducted from my payment this year. Even though my taxes were automatically sent to my bank because I have direct deposit, there has to be a way for TurboTax to get their fees out first. So to answer the question from people that commented above, it does make a lot of sense and of course it makes sense that TurboTax as well as any other tax preparers would have the taxes sent to their own account first and from there they deposit it into your account. how else would they have their fees deducted first then before it gets to us as customers? It's the same if a person gets a refund anticipation loan, they take their fees first before they end up giving you a check if you chose to have a check printed at the office. Some people choose to have it direct deposited into their account but either way before it happens the company takes out their money. So I thought I was in the clear and I thought that I would receive and direct deposit but it was not until this morning that I started looking this stuff up. And it dawned on me that my fees for tax preparation was taken out of my refund. So it made me wonder what information does the IRS have exactly? Does the IRS have my bank account information or do they actually have TurboTax information? I believe that is the case that they have turbo taxes information and therefore as indicated back in 2008 on the IRS website in the facts page oh, we would be a part of the group that would have to wait to receive their stimulus check by getting a check in the mail and again that can take all the way up through August to receive. I do not want this to be the case and I'm hoping that I will get back on here in the next couple of days just to see that people have responded and saying that they have received their checks through direct deposit. But I have a feeling that for many of us it will take much longer I hope that is not the case though. It is really worrisome on top of it knowing that TurboTax is not addressing any issues and choosing not to answer any questions.
