Direct deposit refund info from 5 years ago

[siempre02]

Hello,

The last time I received a refund was in 2015. I have owed and paid taxes via TurboTax every year after that. Will my stimulus check be direct deposited in bank account info from many years ago? It is still my current bank. Or will I get a paper check...ughhh

The IRS may not trust checking account information that is five years old. 

To update or to receive information about your stimulus payment, the IRS will soon be establishing a “Get My Payment” application to allow you to:

• Check your payment status,
• Confirm your payment type such as direct deposit or check,
• Enter your bank account information for direct deposit if the IRS does not have your direct deposit information and has not sent your payment yet.
