You can return your check and ask the IRS to issue a new check.

 

See Returning the Second Economic Impact Payment in Questions and Answers about the Second Economic Impact Payment.

 

Check with your bank first. Your bank should be able to deposit or cash the check if both of you sign. You may both have to go to the bank with your spouse and have your spouse present their ID and sign there.
