I work part-time and am on Social Security. I filed in 2018 (no refund, had to pay) and just mailed 2019 Fed tax (again, no refund, must pay) the other day. Therefore, the IRS does not have my direct deposit info since I did not get a refund. I have not yet received my stimulus payment. I checked that site and keep getting the message “status unknown”. I did read elsewhere that someone got their stimulus payment along with their SS payment. My bank shows my SS payment as pending (will be deposited on Wednesday) but no stimulus payment.
Nothing to see here. #QANON pic.twitter.com/r9bIFHAFBe— An0n66 (@An0n661) April 20, 2020
Not a tax person, but would it do you better to raise your Fed & State withholding so you don’t have to pay.
From all I have read and heard, you will receive a check - although if your SS is direct deposit, you may get a deposit. The IRS has your address and SS has the routing number to your bank account. I would presume by one means of another you will receive your payment; when is anybody's guess. It is the IRS that is distributing payments, but SS is coordinating with them.
I guess patience is in order for all of us - for a week anyway.
