1/5/2021 Update
The IRS has announced that the second round Economic Impact Payments(EIP) are being delivered directly to qualified taxpayers, and the IRS has indicated payments will not be delivered to Refund Transfer banks including Santa Barbara TPG. TPG will not play a role in facilitating these payments. The eligibility amount and status of your stimulus payment can be found at IRS.gov/coronavirus.
If the IRS indicates funds were sent to TPG those funds will be rejected back to the IRS. According to the IRS website, "By law, the financial institution must return the payment to the IRS, they cannot hold and issue the payment to an individual when the account is no longer active."
The IRS may indicate funds were deposited to an account ending in the last four digits of your Social Security number. For your protection any account that was established at TPG to facilitate processing of your tax refund was closed when you received your original tax refund, and that account no longer exists.
Unfortunately, TPG does not have any visibility into this information, therefore our agents cannot answer any questions regarding these payments.
