I did not know you mailed in your tax return. With the Covid-19, the IRS is not currently able to process individual paper tax returns. Since you already mailed in your return, it will not get processed, do not file a second tax return or write to the IRS to inquire about the status of your return or your economic impact payment.
Mailed in returns will be processed once processing centers are able to reopen.
The stimulus payment is technically a refundable tax credit, which reduces your 2020 tax bill on a dollar-for-dollar basis. ... It's an advance of a refundable tax credit — not an advance of your tax refund itself. So if you qualify & don't receive your stimulus money this year, when you file your 2020 return, you will get the stimulus money.
