I have applied for the taxes longtime ago and I have  no news about it. As my bank account was close down and I asked for a paper check, I thought it would take longer because of COVID situation, but it's already 7 weeks and I haven't received the paper check...

Any similar experience?

Thanks!

I haven't received it yet 🙄 

I'm kinda afraid because maybe it's lost, I don't know... I want to think it will arrive in some moment 😅

And of course, I have no news about my stimulus check. Do you?

It depends.

 

The IRS issues a lot of refunds within 21 days, but it has been taking longer with the stimulus payment being issued in addition to the tax refunds.

Also, be aware, the IRS operations are limited during the Covid-19 pandemic.  Attached is a link with more information as to what departments are available to contact at the moment.
