Why Didn’t I Get a Stimulus Check? 

There are a few possible reasons:

🧡 Nothing is wrong. Your check is still on the way and you will get it soon.

🧡 You need to sign up. In order to receive a check, one of these things must be true: 1) You signed up or 2) you filed taxes or 3) you were on Social Security in 2019. If none of those things are true for you, you need to sign up now. Three Places to Sign Up For Stimulus Checks

🧡 You are listed as a dependent on someone else’s taxes: Stimulus Checks for Adults Who Are Dependents

🧡 You are getting a paper check and it hasn’t been mailed yet. See schedules below.

🧡 Your application or tax return is still processing. Some returns are being very slow this year.

🧡 You filed taxes on paper. IRS has stopped processing paper returns. You can file electronically. If you filed in 2018, they will use that return

🧡 Your check went to the wrong place. Some people who filed taxes are having problems with checks being sent to old bank accounts or to tax preparation businesses. IRS states they are working on this problem.

🧡 There was a problem. Many reports of problems. The most common problem is the child’s payment missing. IRS states they are working on these problems. Stay tuned!

People on Social Security Who Don’t File Taxes

Social Security Administration is still processing payments. Many people on Social Security have not received their checks yet. Stay tuned. It may be coming soon.

People Who Filed Taxes

The first round of stimulus checks have gone out. First round went to people who either filed taxes or signed up for stimulus payments using TurboTax or FreeTax.

Even if you filed taxes or signed up, you may not have gotten your payment yet. They have not processed all returns yet, and they are sending payments out in rounds.

Many people reported that they did not receive checks. If this happened, there could be a few reasons:

  • The IRS has not yet processed your tax return this year.
  • The IRS did not have your bank information on file.
  • They sent your payment to an old bank account you no longer used.
  • You used a tax preparation service, which set up a temporary bank account that is now closed.

The IRS has stated that they are aware that many checks went to the wrong place and they are working on fixing this problem.

Paper Checks for People Who Filed Taxes

If IRS did not have your direct deposit bank information, they will send out a paper check. Checks will start being mailed this week and continue through September. People with lowest income will get their checks first. See the schedule of when checks get mailed.

Note: This schedule is only helpful if the IRS has actually processed your tax return. They are behind on processing returns, and paper returns are completely halted. If you filed in 2018, they may use that one instead.

IRS has also created a page where you can track your check: Get My Payment. Apparently, it does not work very well, and many people get error messages.

Stimulus Check Sign Ups on TurboTax or FreeTaxUSA

Some readers report that they have already received their checks. Payments were sent out at the same time as payments for regular tax payers. More rounds of payments will continue in the future.

Not everyone who signed up has gotten their check. In some cases, the IRS may still be processing your request. The IRS has not released a schedule for how quickly they are processing the TurboTax and FreeTax sign ups.

If you did not include direct deposit banking information, they will send out a paper check. Although it is not possible to guarantee when your case will be processed, some people will receive their checks at the same time as taxpayers: See the schedule of when checks get mailed.

IRS has also created a page where you can track your check: Get My Payment. Apparently, it does not work very well, and many people get error messages.

IRS Non-filers Tool

Schedule for this has not yet been released. If you are on Social Security, your payment should be received at the same time as everyone else on Social Security. Stay tuned.

Why Didn’t My Payment Include $500 for My Child? 

There are a few possible reasons:

🧡 You didn’t sign up. You need to sign up or file taxes or your child will not get a check. Three Places to Sign Up For Stimulus Checks

🧡 You waited too long to sign up. For some people on Social Security there was a deadline. You can still get the check, it might take longer: Is it Too Late To Sign Up My Kids For Stimulus Payments?

🧡 There was a problem. Some readers are reporting child payments missing. IRS states that they are aware of these problems and are working on them. They have not yet released information on what you can do to resolve the problem. Stay tuned.

  1. We asked an accountant to file a 2020 tax return for our disabled adult child. She received the current stimulus funds right away. Then the IRS sent a letter that she needs to confirm her identiity which was difficult for us as it could not be done online. Many attempts to call later we got this resolved and now we should receive the previous stimulus payments as well. We received approval for her DAC benefits which took about 11 months!!!

  17. My husband and I are just regular tax payers (NO benefits of any kind) with a child and we are both eligible for relief. We filed a joint return this year before the original April 15th deadline, and soon as the first wave of stimulus deposits went through, his 1200 came in. Mine did not and has still not came in. I’m not getting a paper check because I have my DD set up, I’m totally eligible for my 1200 plus my child’s 500, and every time I check with the IRS get my payment, it just says payment status unavailable. I’m annoyed and irritated because the offices are closed, the irs number is nothing but pre-recorded messages, and I don’t want to wait all the way until September to find out that I’m not going to get one for whatever reason they come up with.

      Date for SSDI & SSI with Payees & Direct Deposit.

      How will the IRS send my economic impact payment (EIP) if I have a representative payee?

      Date: May 14, 2020

      If you filed a 2019 or 2018 tax return: Your $1,200 EIP was or will be sent to the bank account provided on your tax return for an electronic tax refund, or mailed to the address provided on your tax return if a tax refund was mailed or if there was no refund.

      If you did not file a 2019 or 2018 tax return:

      An Individual Representative Payee should receive from the IRS the EIP for their SSI recipient(s) by May 27 to the same direct deposit account or Direct Express card as the recipient’s monthly SSI payment. We are waiting for confirmation from the IRS when it will mail paper check EIPs to payees.

      For an Organizational Representative Payee, the schedule above is the same, except that the payee may receive the EIP electronically or by paper check in the mail.

    3. You Didn’t Get Paid for Your Dependents

      According to the CARES Act, individuals will receive an additional $500 per qualifying dependent as part of their stimulus payment. However, some individuals are reporting that they aren’t receiving this additional money that they’re entitled to, even after jumping through the necessary hoops required by the IRS.

      Many Social Security retirement, survivors or disability insurance benefits and railroad benefits beneficiaries, for example, don’t typically file tax returns. The Treasury Department guided these individuals to submit additional information, including information about qualifying dependents, through the IRS Non-Filers tool by April 22. Now, there are reports of these individuals not receiving their additional $500 per dependent, even when they followed the government’s instructions.

      The IRS’s solution for this might not be one you want to hear.

      “If you did not receive the full amount to which you believe you are entitled, you will be able to claim the additional amount when you file your 2020 tax return,” reads the IRS FAQ on Economic Impact Payments. This means these individuals won’t see the additional dependent money to which they’re entitled until 2021.

      There is one caveat that could explain why you haven’t received your money if you’re a Direct Express cardholder, though.
      Let me know if this helps please, thank you

I don’t file taxes so will I also have to wait until next year to get the money for my daughter? They have made a mess out of this whole thing especially for people who receive Social Security/SSI and veterans, they were the last to get this money and these are the people who need it the worst because of their income being so low. And on top of that they get screwed out of the money for their kids or have to wait a year for it when it’s needed now! Why doesn’t the guy that paid taxes and claimed his children have to wait? He got paid the $500 per child so why didn’t the ones who receive Social Security or SSI get paid for their kids? They’ve complicated things way more than it ever should have been. I hope I don’t have to wait until next year to receive the $500 for my daughter that would suck especially when I need it now! I don’t understand why they couldn’t have deposited her check onto my Direct Express Card along with mine, it would have been so much simpler! It just makes no sense to me and now a lot of families have to suffer because of ignorance.

  41. I am on SSD however my wife still works. We fall under the limits and have a qualifying child and still, we get the Payment Status Not Available line. We did use Turbo Tax as we do every year and are hoping that we are temporarily stuck in that glitch. We are not financially strapped, but $2900 is nothing to ignore. Some information about the software glitch would be great and/or a way that says when you put in your info, “You are not qualified” would make it easier than wondering.

    2. Did you check your TurboTax debit card? I just recently realize that that’s where my money went since the last time I filed they sent me a debit card from TurboTax with my money on there. So if you filed with TurboTax more than likely that’s where your moneys going to go to the debit account

    2. I have been on SSI disability for 10 years and in July or August of last year I got taken off of it. Tried to file with the portal but apparently I have to have some identity pin number from the IRS you can get home before I can register on the portals. No way to get the pin number from the IRS so I can’t even file a tax return with my 1099-sa because I don’t have the pin number. on top of that I got divorced this year so my last name is not even the same. I’m so lost and I’ve been trying for three weeks to get ahold of someone at social security or the IRS and no one can help. Anyone know if they’ll automatically send it?

      1. I am in exact same situation… was getting disability for ten years, And lost that during a struggle to obtain an divorce from an abusive spouse while trying to care for 3 kids… no support, money for a lawyer, etc. And could no longer get medical attention bc I no longer had coverage.
        Anyway, I used the non-filers tool on the irs.gov site to file and apply for stimulus payment for myself and children…
        It was very fast and easy to do… and when I signed up, etc on the site, I was given a PIN # from the IRS then…. it’s so you don’t have to submit personal info and social security #’s, etc when corresponding, etc.
        If you haven’t done so… go to IRS.gov – Stimulus Relief/Corona (not sure title they used), once there, click on non-filers tool and it walks you thru it… you can sign up for a login, etc there as well- and you will receive a PIN
        I did get a payment deposited in my account about 3 wks later for 1200, however did not get the child stimulus payment (which I was desperately depending on for our bills, etc)… and trying to find out what to do or answers is impossible.
        As far as PIN…. Hope that helps for you … good luck and stay safe!!
