I gave the IRS my banking information for 2019 Tax Return, but I wasn't asked to give it for 2020 Tax Return. Am I going to get a paper stimulus check instead of direct deposit for the $1400?
It looks like there's a strong possibility that the next Stimulus Check of $1400 will be passed in the American Rescue Plan bill. I had no income so last year I filled out the Non Filer Form here on TurboTax which was basically a 2019 Tax Return and I was able to include my banking information so I got the $1200 and $600 Stimulus Checks via direct deposit. I was told that they could possible only use the 2020 Tax Return for the new $1400 Stimulus Check so in a rush I efiled a 2020 Tax Return with $1 income so I wasn't asked to add banking information since I'm not getting a refund. The 2020 Tax Return got accepted by State and Federal. Someone told me that you had to give the IRS banking information every single year so I'm wondering since I wasn't told to enter in my banking information for the 2020 Tax Return and if they go off of that one for the $1400 Stimulus Check does that mean that they don't have my banking information and I will be mailed a paper check or debit card even though I gave them my banking information for 2019 or does the IRS keep it on file?
