If you are required to file a 2019 return :
And you have not filed YET ... then file the 2019 return asap entering the DD info in the FILE tab.
If you HAVE filed the 2019 return and need to update your address or DD info :
1) wait for the IRS portal to open later this month to update your DD info.
2) mail in a form 8822 to change the address.
If you are NOT required to file a 2019 return AND you are NOT receiving SS benefits :
You can register for the stimulus check using this TT option : https://turbotax.intuit.com/stimulus-check/
If the "simple" return register is rejected then all you can do is mail in the return.
I appreciate everyone wants their money NOW, but in some cases that won't be possible…
the only issue is WHEN you receive the money not IF you are going to receive the money …
from what Treas. Sec. Mnuckin said last week, direct deposits should be in checking / savings account by April 14 (end of the month if you have social security only and do not file)…
for checks, they are to begin mailing the week of April 24 in 'income order' Under 10k of income the week of APril 24, under 20k of income the week of May 1, etc .
when they did this in 2008 it took SIX months to get it done; it's a lot quicker this time
The IRS is required to send you a letter within 15 days after they send out the money.... so if you get the letter and did not get the money, i am sure the letter will give you contact information.
Figure the direct deposits will occur by April 14 (that was the plan announced last week) and I suspect there will a lot in the news once they start the deposits.
