Delivery of the Economic Impact Payments (i.e. stimulus checks) into bank accounts has begun and will continue in the coming days. Some of you may already have seen the check deposited or see it listed as a “pending” deposit in your online banking account.
Still waiting? Now you can check your payment status online!
There’s a brand new application on the IRS website that allows you to check your payment status, confirm your payment type (direct deposit or check), and enter your bank account information for direct deposit if it’s not already on file with the IRS.
To get started, head on over here and click the blue “Get My Payment” button. This application is already very popular, so you may have to be a little bit patient while it loads. You’ll be asked to enter your Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Tax ID Number (ITIN), date of birth, street address, and Zip Code.
