My stimulus check went to a closed account

It depends on what type of account was closed from last year. 

  • If you no longer have access to your Turbo Visa Debit Card, don’t worry. You may still be able to get access to it.
    • If you have registered your card and know your login credentials, request a replacement card by signing in to your Turbo Visa Debit Card account using this link:  Report a Lost or Stolen Turbo Debit Card 
       
    • If you don’t know your account login information, call 888-285-4169 for assistance. 

You will not be charged for a replacement card or check; standard fees will be waived or refunded to you. Due to unprecedented traffic they may experience some delays on the site or phone line. We know everyone is anxious to get their stimulus money and we appreciate your patience. For additional questions, including how to receive a check, Turbo Visa Debit Card site: Turbo Card Stimulus Check.

 

  • If the account closed is a bank account, the IRS will issue a paper check to the address on file.
    • If you have not moved from last year, then you can expect a paper check
    • If you have moved from last year,
      • and have submitted your 2019 tax return using your new address, you do not have to do anything more. The IRS will have your new address.
      • If you have not yet submitted your 2019 tax return but have moved since your last tax filing, fill out Form 8822 to notify the IRS of the change of address as soon as possible.

Or, go directly to IRS: Economic Impact Payment Get My Payment Resource  to update your details.

So the card company  can't  forward to new checking account 

My stimulus check went to a closed account

no - there is too much risk of fraud if they were to do that.  there are banking laws they have to follow
