No email, will I still get my second stimulus forwarded?

Hello, from twitter I  discovered turbotax was sending emails concerning stimulus error associated with dummy bank accounts created to extract fee. If I didn't get an email will I still get mine forwarded? I need this forwarded asap. Please assist with info update on progress.

Use the Get My Payment tool to confirm:

 

  • That the IRS sent your second Economic Impact payment, also known as a stimulus payment.
  • That they sent your first payment. Some people received their first Economic Impact Payment in partial payments. If you received partial payments, the application will show only the most recent.
  • Your payment type: direct deposit or mail.

 

Data is updated once per day overnight, so there's no need to check more than once per day.

 

Please do not call the IRS about the second stimulus payment; their phone assistors do not have additional information beyond what’s available here on IRS.gov and in the Get My Payment application. 

 

Get My Payment - There are also links at the bottom of that page that give more details based on what the results of your inquiry are.

I'm in the same boat. I was just reading the comments on youtube video about this and a few people said they contacted Turbo tax directly today and were told "the emails have no weight and are in no way a guarantee of any action to be taken on Turbo tax's part". Most people are now think these emails were a stall tactic and that we will have to claim the credit on our taxes. A lot of people feel lied to by Turbo tax and plan on filing their taxes elsewhere. In fact there is already talk of filing another class action because of all this. I know I tried contacting them twice today and got two different answers.
