I have filed my taxes for the first time a few days back, will I be getting the stimulus check?

[ReginaM]

Yes, you will receive your Stimulus Payment even if you just filed a few days ago.

It will take the IRS a little while to get everyone's Stimulus Payments to them.  We do not have access to the IRS's timeline, but we do know that they are diligently working on getting these out as quickly as possible.

HI Regina, thank you so much.

So the thing is I will be getting some refund too for those taxes and it's still under processing , and I'm in need of that stimulus , is there anything that I should do .?

@snjjain11 - the thing to do , unfortunately, is just wait and have patience..... 80 million people still waiting on their stimulus checks

Mine were filed March 28, 2020 and I haven't received mine. They were for 2019. What should I do and will it be direct deposit? I also registered with the IRS portal.

The online link is your best option to track your refund.  I have attached a link with more answers from the IRS as to why your refund may be taking longer to process.

Federal refund questions

There is a delay in processing the returns as the IRS is not processing paper returns at the moment due to Covid-19 and social distancing policies in effect.
