Unexpected IRS Payment

Hello,

I just received this past Wednesday a direct deposit from the IRS that I was not expecting. I did not receive a notice so I tried to see if it was a mistake. It is impossible to talk to somebody over the phone but my friend told me it could be a readjustment refund due a change in law for people who were unemployed (my husband) during COVID. I was able to access to my transcripts on the IRS website and see the payment on the date I received it. Can someone confirm this money is mine and that this is not a mistake from IRS if it shows on the transcript? Thank you!
