The IRS is directing tax filers, who have not received their full payment by the time they file their 2020 tax return, to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on this year’s tax return since these payments are an advance of the Recovery Rebate Credit on the 2020 Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR. For those without current direct deposit information on file, they will receive the payment as a check or debit card in the mail. As part of the income tax filing, the IRS receives accurate banking information for all TurboTax filers who receive a tax refund, which the IRS is able to use to deposit stimulus payments. Taxpayers with direct deposit information on file will receive the payment that way. The IRS has begun issuing stimulus payments using the most recent information they have on file, likely from your 2019 tax return, either by direct deposit or by check. There is nothing you need to do to get a stimulus payment. However, households with different immigration and citizenship statuses will be eligible to receive $600 per individual and $600 per child with Social Security numbers.
In general, taxpayers without an eligible Social Security number are not eligible for the payment. You must have a valid Social Security number, and you can’t have been claimed as a dependent on someone else’s 2019 tax return. The same eligibility rules apply to the second stimulus payment as the first one.
