My husband and I only received 1/2 of our stimulus checks! We should have received $4200 (me, him, dependent) but only got $2100. Why? We don't make the max amount.

You are correct, we are seeing that many TurboTax customers are experiencing delays in checks and deposits from the IRS as well as amounts that are different than what is expected.   While we are waiting for guidance from the IRS and are updating news as it becomes available, please follow this link for updated information.  Also, please visit the IRS website to see their refund and stimulus status tool.

Hi everyone-

 

I have been stalking my checking account since seeing only half our stimulus check was deposited 3/17. As of today, I just noticed the other half ($2100) is now pending to finally deposit on 3/24. So I hope others in this same issue can see theirs too.

Unfortunately, we have been noticing that many of our customers are receiving less than the amount that is due them.  We do not have information from the IRS as to why this occurs; however As customers continue to have questions regarding the Economic Impact Payments (EIP), we’re continuing to work with the IRS for guidance. We’re updating our customer and expert-facing articles with information as soon as we get it.

For the most up to date information available regarding stimulus amounts being sent to our customers by the IRS, please review the new FAQs in the article, How will the third stimulus impact me?

@kthostenson  Thank you for sharing. Who do you bank with? I hope to be in the same boat as I have been unsuccessful contacting IRS. Their lines have been busy.

We also received 1/2 of our 2,800 stimulus. Is it a govt issue or turbo tax?

Yes, you are correct, many of our customers are experiencing delays in receiving their stimulus due to the IRS not answering the phone and their online tools not working as expected.  This is true for all taxpayers including those using private tax professionals and other software companies.   As our customers continue to have questions regarding the Economic Impact Payments (EIP), we’re continuing to work with the IRS for guidance. We’re updating our customer and expert-facing articles with information as soon as we get it.

Yes, you are correct, many of our customers are experiencing delays in receiving their stimulus without being able to access information via the tools the IRS has provided as expected.  As our customers continue to have questions regarding the Economic Impact Payments (EIP), we’re continuing to work with the IRS for guidance. We’re updating our customer and expert-facing articles with information as soon as we get it.

@mhenry530  I bank with a credit Union as well (USAA). I must not be looking is the correct area. Did you call IRS or is it just automatically correcting itself?
