That is correct. If you paid your filing fees from your refund then your stimulus was inadvertently sent to the pass through account TurboTax uses to receive your refund,  take their fees then forward on to your personal account. H&R Block customers that opted for the refund transfer seeing the same issue except H&R Block kept their pass through accounts open so they have been able to direct deposit customers payments to their personal accounts they filed with. TurboTax apparently closed their pass through accounts with Green Dot and they rejected the payments thus sending them back to the IRS. Per an IRS rep (not one of the stimulus phone reps that won't even look up your account) as of now rejected payments will be mailed out as a paper check in 4-6 weeks. And these payments do not have the January 15th deadline because technically they issued the payments before then. Supposedly TurboTax, Green Dot and the IRS are working to fix this issue (not really sure which dropped the ball here) and there could be a chance to not have to wait the 4-6 weeks for paper checks. But I've basically been told not to get your hopes up. For now, just wait on your paper check in the mail next month. And yes, even if you received your last stimulus by direct deposit into your personal account with no problem, apparently there was a rush to get this payment out by the deadline, this issue was overlooked. I'm not sure why a mass amount of peoples account numbers would be changed from then until now but this is the issue were facing if you still haven't received your stimulus but your IRS account transcript is saying payment was issued. Most people are saying their transcript shows an issue date of 1/4/21.
