It depends. Since your returns were accepted, then the typical processing time would have been 21 days. However, realistically, the processing time may be delayed.

 

In your case, the 2018 tax return information may be used instead. If you qualify for the stimulus check and do not receive it, then it can be claimed when filing the 2020 tax return by April 15, 2021. You will not lose out on the payment, even though it could be delayed.
