I got the first 1200 and never the second 600. Literally nothing about my income changed. Just assuming I'm gonna get fucked on this one too and if not it'll be a pleasent surprise. Not gonna set myself up for disappointment.
How do I apply for this if I didn't do anything to get the first batches (TurboTax gave them to me automatically when I did my taxes last month)
In theory you shouldn't have to do anything if TurboTax has your bank information or mailing address but they also fucked up last time.
So I guess wait and see what instructions appear on the IRS website.
Why are some people getting the checks through Turbo Tax rather than through their bank? Genuinely curious.
Edit: Errrr... Or is it that the government determines how to pay you based on how you filed your taxes? Because I filed through Turbo Tax, and I guess I wasn't unlucky enough to have delayed payments on the last 2 stimulus checks.

Is there any way to give the government your bank info? It's annoying to have to wait for a check. I filed for 2019 tax return but didn't get a refund, ie, I had to pay money. But for some reason that wasn't good enough even though they have my bank account info as they took money out of it. Seems like it only worked if the government deposited a check as a tax return?
Did you have TurboTax deduct their fee from your refund? Or did you pay their fee directly and receive the full refund via direct deposit into your bank account.
If the former, they fucked that up before, so who knows. If the latter you should be fine.
I think the issue last time was that tax season was long over and those accounts no longer existed. I don't think we'll have the same trouble this time... I hope.
They had one for the very first stimulus, but unlikely to roll it out again. They didn't for the second stimulus.
This is hard to explain... but payments to the IRS, even via their own portal, are treated as separate from the tax filing completely and do not confer permission to deposit funds into an account. Refund DD info is actually on your tax return and includes said permission.
Depends on how you decide to pay for TurboTax I believe. If you paid for it with your tax refund TT opens an intermediate account to process their fee before forwarding the money to your account. The issue with the last stimulus is that TT had already closed the accounts used for last year so the wire transfers bounced back to the irs. It shouldnt be an issue if you recently filed or paid with your money upfront.
Me and wife got both checks through our bank, on time, and we always filed through Turbo Tax too.
Got the first stimulus deposit straight to our bank account. We were sent a check for the second. Will I get a check again for this one you think?
you can claim them on your tax return if they never sent it to you so you didn't miss out on it.
You ain't lying. I'm rarely hurting, but it would definitely help sooner rather than later.
I was one of the people that got screwed by TurboTax and only got the money because I was able to update my direct deposit information on time when they alerted me to it.
They should be using that information this time, right?
