Economic Stimulus Payment

I live abroad and receive my social security monthly payments direct deposited to my foreign bank account.  I have not needed to file income tax for 2018 or 2019.  I understand that the IRS will not direct deposit funds to foreign accounts.  What should I do to receive my payment?

The stimulus payment should be sent as a check to your address in the foreign country based on the current address available with the Social Security Administration.

 

Or you can use the IRS non-filers website -
